Hi. Though the diary Custom Date box does times DD/MM/YY hh:mm (as I like), the long date format is Day, Month D, YYYY — whereas I would prefer Day D Month YYYY. Please might we (non-urgently!) have ‘localisation’ options for date formats (and similar)? Diolch.
@shauny is best placed to answer but I have a feeling this has been asked before and it’s quite a tricky thing to implement.
Ah just the format should be fine (this is not about timezones). I’ll take a look.
I’ve taken a look, pretty simple really - done!
And as a bonus, people from other countries get the dates in their language too:
Edit: removed that!
I’ve updated it everywhere I can think that dates show - release dates, diary dates, reviews, etc.
(note this is NOT about timezones, the actual dates are always stored as UK time)
May I ask if this can be turned off? It feels strange to me to have a mix of languages. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Hmm it’s kind of just how localisation works?
Let me see
OK! I made it always show English text but should keep the correct order.
Looks great! Thank you!
Ahh I replaced months but not other words/suffixes, that should now be fixed can you check it please?
It’s alright now. Thanks! ![]()
Thanks @shauny
