    Revo was initially installed in english but later the System language settings were changed to german. As expected most of the Manager now appears in german. However, I noticed when creating blog posts the month of the published date which in my case is formatted like this:

    %b '%y


    or

    Mar
    '14

    is still generated in english. Is it possible to make the month render in german instead?

    This question has been answered by rx2. See the first response.

        No, it's blank.

        I looked at the PHP docs but I'm not sure what I need to enter in the field. Just “de” or something more?

          For our locale setting (in this case the example is French Canadian) we use: fr_CA.UTF-8 so for German it's probably de_DE.UTF-8.

          Some codes are listed here.

          We also set cultureKey and language to the two character code, ie. in our case fr.

            Thanks Bob and rx2, de_DE.UTF-8 seems to have done the trick. Very nice. [ed. note: todd.b last edited this post 12 years, 6 months ago.]
