PHP Dates: How can I translate them?

[JulianD]

How can I translate the dates on vBulletin? I see the dates are built with the date() function, so I really don't know how to translate them to another language.

Any ideas?

[Admin]

The timestamps are not "built" with date() but with time(), which returns the time in unix stamp. You use date() to convert them, or rather vbdate() to get the timezones correct and everything.

Oops, sorry aabout that... But then, there is no way to translate the
times?

BTW: this is my first reply by email. Let's see if it works.

Double post. Please delete :)

[Admin]

Yes there is a way, use the date() function. :)

Sorry for all the messy posts but this should work but it doesent in vbulletin? is that couse of vbdate() ?

used :


<?php
/* Set locale to Swedish */
setlocale (LC_ALL, 'sv_SE');
?>


just put that in global php or something...
Just make sure you have the locale file installed that u want.
