I'm brazilian and there's a wordpress plugin that uses
" . date("d F Y (H:i)",$date) . "
Output: 16 January 2013 (00:54)
But it should be 16 Janeiro 2013 (00:54), in portuguese... How can I change it?
PS: I think maybe the date is set by an external file provided by the plugin creator :p I'm not sure though
The date/time functions allow you to get the date and time from the server where your PHP script runs. You can then use the date/time functions to format the date and time in several ways. Note: These functions depend on the locale settings of your server.
Answer: Use the strtotime() Function You can first use the PHP strtotime() function to convert any textual datetime into Unix timestamp, then simply use the PHP date() function to convert this timestamp into desired date format. The following example will convert a date from yyyy-mm-dd format to dd-mm-yyyy.
date("Y/m/d") . "<br>"; echo "Today is " . date("Y.m.d") .
WordPress has date_i18n
to retrieve the date in localized format, based on timestamp.
Try:
echo date_i18n("d F Y (H:i)", $timestamp);
WordPress has an extensive page on how to format date and time.
