non-US date format won’t save

Hi Jonathan,

I’ve tried some new things:

– changing the date format in the translation
=> the date & time is displayed in the right order for french readers, but days and months names are still in english

– changing the locale and using strftime() rather than date()
=> the date & time are french-fliendly, at last!
==>> small problem : the “format string” used by stfrtime() is different from the one from date(), so the format strings in the translation have to be modified accordingly. (using % sign)
==>> other problem : I don’t know where to define the locale globally, so for now my way of doing it is quite dirty for now…

– the datepicker won’t work at all, even with a clean install of your plugin: like I wrote in my first post, the date chosen with the datepicker is put in the form, but is disappear when I save the page.

– I managed to display the phone number in the french standard, but one agin it’s hardcoded and dirty… maybe the phone format could be in the translation too, using regex, but I don’t have the knowledge to do that!

examples:

strftime instead of date:
setlocale(LC_TIME, ‘fr’,’fr_FR’,’fr_FR.utf8′,’fra’);
// $opp_time = date( __( ‘D, F d, Y g:i a’, ‘wired-impact-volunteer-management’ ), $start_date_time);
$opp_time = strftime(“%A %d %B %Y %H:%M”, $start_date_time);

phone number format:
// $formatted_number = ‘(‘ . substr( $unformatted_number, 0, 3 ) . ‘) ‘. substr( $unformatted_number, 3, 3 ) . ‘-‘ . substr( $unformatted_number, 6 );
$formatted_number = substr( $unformatted_number, 0, 2 ) . ‘ ‘ . substr( $unformatted_number, 2, 2 ) . ‘ ‘ . substr( $unformatted_number, 4, 2 ) . ‘ ‘ . substr( $unformatted_number, 6, 2 ) . ‘ ‘ . substr( $unformatted_number, 8 );
