i have searched the forum for this but there is no clear answer and everyone is saying different things about this issue. the main problem with ja teline iv is to how to change & localize the date and time on the top of page.

can anyone help me and tell me how to localize the date and last update time please?? i am using ja teline & joomla 1.5.23 with turkish language.

i want to put 24 H format on time and D/M/Y date format with turkish day names and to change the text Last Update to turkish too.

Hi,

24 H format

You replace this code from pluginssystemjat3corecommon.php


$date =& JFactory::getDate(strtotime($data->created));
$user =& JFactory::getUser();
$tz = $config->get('offset');

$sec =$date->toUNIX(); //set the date time to second
return gmdate("h:i:s A", $sec).' GMT';
with


return JHTML::date($data->created, "%H:%M:%S");

D/M/Y date format with turkish day names

You replace this code from templatesja_teline_ivblockstopbar.php

echo "<span class="day">".date ('D')."</span>";
echo "<span class="month">".date ('m')."</span>";
echo "<span class="date">".date ('d')."</span>";

with


echo "<span class="day">".JText::_(date ('D'))."</span>";
echo "<span class="date">".date ('d')."</span>";
echo "<span class="month">".date ('m')."</span>";

Find this code from languageen-GBen-GB.ini


SAT=Sat
SUN=Sun
MON=Mon
TUE=Tue
WED=Wed
THU=Thu
FRI=Fri

Change bold texts as you want to.

to change the text Last Update to turkish too.

Find this code from languageen-GBen-GB.ini

LAST UPDATED=Last Updated <change this value

Thank you for your detailed answer.

i have changed the date to Turkish format, it is perfect. but even if i have changed the text on en-GB.ini file the Last Update is not changing, any tips??

also i cannot change the time to 24H forrmat because the code on /plugins/system/jat3/core/common.php is as the code below, not like you wrote. how to change it?

function getLastUpdate($fieldname=null){

if (!$fieldname) $fieldname = 'created';

$db = &JFactory::getDBO();

$query = "SELECT `$fieldname` FROM #__content a ORDER BY `$fieldname` DESC LIMIT 1";

$db->setQuery($query);

$data = $db->loadObject();

if( $data->$fieldname ){ //return gmdate( 'h:i:s A', strtotime($data->created) ) .' GMT ';

$date =& JFactory::getDate(strtotime($data->$fieldname));

//get timezone configured in Global setting

$app = & JFactory::getApplication();

$tz = $app->getCfg('offset')*60*60;

$sec =$date->toUNIX(); //set the date time to second

//return by the format defined in language

return strftime (JText::_('T3_DATE_FORMAT_LASTUPDATE'), $sec+$tz);

}

return ;

}

You replace this code from templatesja_teline_ivblockstopbar.php

<?php echo JText::_('Last update')?>
with

<?php echo JText::_('Last_update')?>
Add this code into languageen-GBen-GB.ini

LAST_UPDATE=last update

you should change
if (!$fieldname) $fieldname = ‘created’;

with

if (!$fieldname) $fieldname = ‘modified’;

So, what I got finally is the below function in /plugins/system/jat3/jat3/core/common.php file

[php]
function getLastUpdate($fieldname=null){
if (!$fieldname) $fieldname = ‘created’;
$db = &JFactory::getDBO();
$query = “SELECT `$fieldname` FROM #__content a ORDER BY `$fieldname` DESC LIMIT 1”;
$db->setQuery($query);
$data = $db->loadObject();
if( $data->$fieldname ){
//return by the format defined in language file with server offset
return JHTML::date($data->$fieldname, JText::_(‘T3_DATE_FORMAT_LASTUPDATE’));
}
return;
}
[/php]

Please note that T3_DATE_FORMAT_LASTUPDATE in en-GB.plg_system_jat3.ini should correspond to formatting of the PHP date function (without %). In my case it is:
[php]T3_DATE_FORMAT_LASTUPDATE=”Y-m-d H:i”[/php]
