International date as a TV

Hi there!

I’ve read many posts and didn’t find any solution yet on my following issue. I dare to consider it crusial also.

I am making a russian site where I want to use dates in formats that display weekdays and months as a words (like ’Sunday’, ’April’ etc.)
Can someone tell me how I actually display these dates in Russian (or other languages)? Is this the question of modx or server properties?

Hi !

You can use this snippet to format date : FormatDate.
You need to configure Modx. Example, for french, you put this line at the top of your language file :

You can read Add SetLocale to language files for more information.

thanks for the reply but this ain’t working still gettin English values...

Did you set local value to russian or other language ? maybe your server is configured only with english...

Another solution is to replace english words by other language words with a plugin. See WordsReplace

Wow thanks veru much for the snippet! Works like a charm!™

Thanks
