Hi, it's a little tricky to get it to work right because of special characters in other languages. The date() function in php by default takes on the language of the server. If you edit the template's index.php file and look for:

<?php $today = date("l, F j, Y"); PRINT "$today";?>

replace it with:

<?php

setlocale(LC_ALL, 'es-es');

echo strftime("%A, %B %e, %Y");

?>

Hello,

Your post was overlooked. Please be sure to open a new topic for new questions so they are not overlooked.

The post above should work. If not, please post a url to your site so I can see the code live.

I just changed the order of the following fields:

?
<php setlocale (LC_ALL, 'es-es');
echo strftime ("% A,% e% B,% Y");
?>

to

?
<php setlocale (LC_ALL, 'pt-br');
("% A,% B de % e de % Y");
?>

But keeping it as you originally posted, nothing changes. Continues in English, when I want to in Portuguese  br.

In Joomla 1.5 of template your code worked. How did the upgrade to 1.7 and repeat the same change did not work anymore.
