I love this plugin, it is a real Godsend but I, too, have this problem.
Did you find a solution?
I have added this support just for you. You can now set a locale, however you must now use the strftime function and have that locale installed on your server. For Danish, the locale should be something like nl_NL
Enjoy!
For me the localization does not work (de_DE), do you have to put something else somewhere? My wp_config carries the de_DE as well…
Ok, I fixed the locale settings (v1.2.1). Sorry about the error. It was only working on my machine I guess. Now it should work for everyone.
Also, I have included a list of supported locales if you are running on a Linux web server.
Locale for nardus would be nl_NL.UTF-8
Locale for snoofox would be de_DE.UTF-8
Remember, you can also put something like de_DE,de_DE.UTF-8 into the box to try multiple locales.

Hmm, I still can’t get it to work. I have tried to put da_DA.UTF-8,da_DA (I’m Danish and not Dutch) but months still shows in english. Any ideas?
Are you changing the date function to strftime? The date function does not support Locales. Also, are you using a linux server? Because if you are, you can see the list of acceptable Locales.
If you are using a Windows Server, try using danish or dan. You can also check out this site for Windows Server Locales: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/39cwe7zf.aspx
Sorry about the Danish/Dutch mixup :-). Hope you get this to work!

Thank you for the quick response.
I’m using strftime (Format: %e. %B %Y and %H:%M).
The site is running on a Free BSD server.
If I’m clicking on “Show / Hide Supported Locales – Only works on Linux” the list is empty. I have tried using bouth Danish and Dan without any luck.
No problem about the Danish/Dutch mixup. It happends from time to time 🙂
I would say that it is possible that your server does not have locales installed. I am not sure why this is, but I would contact your System Admin and ask them if they have a Danish locale and what the string for it is.
Hope this helps.

Thankyou so much this works well for me, except that it does not put the month in my language. It changes the days, and the details pop up box but the month remains in English. I cannot see where the code is to change it.
Am i Just being thick?

On my instllation it works like charme BUT only for the event page. The Widget doesn’t translate at all.
Maybe you just haven’t looked into this one. I would love to have german date and time in the Widget too. Please add support or this.
Sorry, it only works for the list and not for the calendar.
Ok so on the callendar the month name is gennerated by line 187 of cal-functions.php
jQuery("#ics-calendar-header-text").html("' . $today['month'] . ' ' . $today['year'] .' ");
I dont know jQuery at all and cannot find a ‘Date,’ ‘Today,’ ‘month,’ or ‘year’ function in any of the jQuery files bundled with the plugin.
I believe that it is in changing this line that our solution is found but i cant seem to think how.
Anyone got any ideas?

Ok so i now have a partial fix for the displaying the months at the top of the callendar in another language.
Modify line 187 to say
jQuery("#ics-calendar-header-text").html("' . strftime( "%B" , strtotime($today['month'])) . ' ' . $today['year'] .' ");
';
This works for the the first time the page is loaded but months revert to english when you browse next or previous months.
SOLUTION – but its not neat.
See post above, and insert a ‘setlocale’ arround line 49.
Hurrah!
