Well, it seems that the strftime parsing has an issue.
Until the update, here’s a quick fix that worked for me:
Go to Admin -> Settings -> Languages -> Click on Edit for (let’s say) English and change the Date Format option from %A %B %e%q, %Y to l, j F Y.
I have a similar problem. All my post dates are just appearing as the current time instead of the time they were published. I don’t have a fix yet.
Found solution:
On the “Translations” options, in the admin page of the plugin, in “Advanced Settings”, there are 4 options shown as selection boxes. Select the last one, that states “Use strftime (…) and replace formats (…)”. That should solve the qTranslate display issue.
Except I had to select “Use emulated date function.” Fixed.
