Date output in French

Thu, 17 May 2012 10:49:32 -0700

Hi there,

Wondering how could we display the date in french on the frontend?

Because changing the settings on the CMSBuilder to FR allows well to display the dates in French in the dropdowns within the forms but on the output side, it's displayed in english even if we try to output:

echo strftime('%d %B %Y', strtotime($record['date'])); ?>

Any ideas??

Thanks a lot

Thanks Chris for your answer.

I actually created a new section called top navigation in which I've added the Navigation Titles / URLs and display those elements in the page in a separate viewer.

I hope in the future releases that there will be some kind of easy navigation management.

Take care

Hi

We would need some help because we've been looking around the forum for answers, which we found partially but can't figure out the following problem:

- We have a website with different menu/submenus that needs to be self manageable, in our case:
o Home
o About
>> Our Staff
>> Testimonials
o Projects
>> Project 1
>> Project 2
o News
o Services
>> Page name
>> Page name 2
...

Each page has to be customized (so it has a different editor, for example our Staff page will have a multiple Record type, and each record will have Name, Title, Function, Photo, Bio... the news page on the other hand will have more basic info such as Title, Short description, Long description, and so on.

What we can’t figure out is how to set up the section editors so we can create those pages and be able to have a top navigation menu on the website that will show those menu items without integrating it manually?

We are able to create each editors with no problems, but creating a Category Menu won’t allow to have different type of pages underneath it, or creating a Menu, not sure how to have all elements within the menu listed on the frontend so it shows the top navigation...

The goal to achieve is for example if the backend user adds a new page under About Us, that the main navigation on the frontend automatically displays this new page as a subnavigation

Please help, that would be really appreciated

Thanks a lot

Found it!

Just add at the top of the page:

function textLimit($string, $length, $replacer = '...')
{
if(strlen($string) > $length)
return (preg_match('/^(.*)\W.*$/', substr($string, 0, $length+1), $matches) ? $matches[1] : substr($string, 0, $length)) . $replacer;

return $string;
}

and then where you want to display your content:

Hi there, I was wondering how I could display on the listing page the first X characters of a field such as "content" ?

For example: I want to show the first 100 characters.

Let me know please
