Alphanumeric Dates - Is it possible?
Hi everyone!
I´ve got this website, made in Contao of course: http://test.gestionpublica.info/socieda ... -rios.html
You can see at the end of the note, that i´ve put the date automatically from the template, but i really need that date to be alphanumeric, like 'Friday, June 29, 2012' (in spanish it would be something like 'Viernes 29 de Junio de 2012').
So:
- is it possible?
- from where do i have to set it? from the template? from any other parameters?
- and if you have the solution for spanish dates, it would be great!
Thanks so much.
Regards

This is from an old post, not sure if it is still relevant but it may point you in the right direction:

Re: Alphanumeric Dates - Is it possible?
Thanks!!!
It worked by using this code:
<div class="date"><span class="date">
<?php echo $this->parseDate("l j F", strtotime($this->date)); ?></span>
<?php if ($this->time): ?> – Kl <span class="time"><?php echo $this->time; ?></span><?php endif; ?>
</div>
but i´m still having one problem, that maybe you can help me with.
You see, now the date displays like this:
Lunes 2 Julio 2012
But the spanish correct way is:
Lunes 2 de Julio de 2012
Those de are prepositions that dont change, so they have to be always sticked there. How do i do this??
Sorry for my lack of PHP knowledges :)
and thanks again!

Hey no problem,
I'm no PHP expert either, so if I'm totally wrong someone else can hopefully pitch in :)
but I had a look around and found out that maybe
this
Monday 2nd of July 2012
equals this:
Code:
<?php echo date("l jS \\of F Y",strtotime("today")); ?>
and this
Monday 2 de July de 2012
equals this
Code:
<?php echo date("l j \\d\\e F \\d\\e Y",strtotime("today"));?>
so you could try this in contao:
Code:
<?php echo $this->parseDate("l j \\d\\e F \\d\\e Y", strtotime($this->date)); ?></span>
who knows, it might work!
