   You have to modify wp-includes/template-functions.
   Line 435: Replace:
   $pad = intval(date('w', $unixmonth)); by
   $pad = intval(date('w', $unixmonth)-1);
   and
   Line 455: Replace:
   if (6 == date('w', mktime(0, 0 , 0, $thismonth, $day, $thisyear))) by
   if (0 == date('w', mktime(0, 0 , 0, $thismonth, $day, $thisyear)))
   I hope this help you.

   Well, I tried this bugfix. But my calendar still starts with a Sunday. The weekday headers are now totally wrong. They should start with 'M', not with 'S'. Where can I fix this?

   HELP! says the newbie fighting with the get_calendar function in order to display Monday as the first day of the calendar and not Sunday!
   Sometimes steps are obvious but if you miss one, damn!
   I took me quite a while to figure it out (think, Forrest, think) but here's a "little bit more detailed way" to succeed in customizing the calendar and it's display.
   This solution works pretty well with a small issue though (don't panic! It's not that ugly and there's a fix):
   1- You have to modify and translate in wp-config-extra.php the $weekday[0]='Sunday' to 'Monday' or 'Maanantai' in Finnish for example and keep the list logical unless you want to have a funky calendar! (that's probably where most of the newbies got stucked with non working mod then)
   2- Modify the code in template-function.php. (you can also look for // See how much we should pad in the beginning, the mods to make are just below that comment.)
   around line 435 replace:
   $pad = intval(date('w', $unixmonth));
   by
   $pad = intval(date('w', $unixmonth)-1);
   and
   around line 455, replace:
   if (6 == date('w', mktime(0, 0 , 0, $thismonth, $day, $thisyear))) by
   if (0 == date('w', mktime(0, 0 , 0, $thismonth, $day, $thisyear)))
   3- Sit back and enjoy your calendar starting with Monday :)
   The "small" issue is (for me at least) that in the first row of February day 1 stands under Tuesday but should be under Sunday. I've tried with other months (30 & 31 days) and it just looks fine with rows & cells.
   Pity for February?
   Here you can fix it (thanks smo!):

   Just follow the steps and you're done!
   Thanks to WP community for making this possible:)

   Erku,
   wouldnt that result in negative paddings if date returns 0 and start_of_week is 1?

   Not sure. Works perfectly for me so far.

   For WP 1.2.1:
   It's wp-includes/template-functions-general.php
   line 457:
   $pad = intval(date('w', $unixmonth-1));
   line 478:
   if (0 == date('w', mktime(0, 0 , 0, $thismonth, $day, $thisyear)))
   And wp-includes/locale.php:
   $weekday[0] = __('Monday');
   $weekday[1] = __('Tuesday');
   $weekday[2] = __('Wednesday');
   $weekday[3] = __('Thursday');
   $weekday[4] = __('Friday');
   $weekday[5] = __('Saturday');
   $weekday[6] = __('Sunday');
   That's it, now calendar weeks start with Monday, as is proper on this side of the pond.
