Quick language question for CGBlog

[fearmydesign]

Is there a way to replace the months showing on my archive template to Spanish instead of english? I tried changing in my user preferences, but that just changed my admin to spanish.

Thank you

I tried calling the language property, but it's not working this way...

Code: Select all

{CGBlog action="archive" lang="es_CA"}

Set your FrontendLanguage in GlobalSettings to Spanish as well. That will pull the date/labels from the locale, if set. So if you have a locale for Spanish then it will be already Spanish then. The lang= parameter is required when the module doesnt pull the language settings automatically, or when another lang then default-for-frontend is to be used.

Thank you Ronny, I did exactly this but it's not working. I went to Global settings and changed the "Default Language for Frontend" to Español (Spanish) and it didn't work. I actually tried it with other languages, but still in english. I also removed the lang= parameter (tried with and without) but nothing

Code: Select all

{CGBlog action="archive"}

I am using version 1.9.4.2 should I try upgrading to 1.9.4.3 first? and then to 1.10 ?

Thanks

I doubt that that will help, as I think that your webserver doesnt have the Spanish locale installed.... So upgrading wont fix that.

If you upgrade, just overwrite the set with the latest version and start the upgrade. Make sure that you have a backup of both files and database.

Thanks Ronny, should I contact my webserver admin and ask them to install the Spanish Locale?... this is new to me. I appreciate your help, thanks.

I use the trick from this page to localize my date:

I even have 2 locale UDT in the same page and it's working!
