Re: Calendar one step forward, two steps back in 1.10

posts: 3665 United States

I've just started working on moving my site to 1.10, so can't help much... but here goes....

In 1.9 and below there was no way to choose 12hr/AM/PM but you could edit the Calendar and Add Event template files and force them to use AM/PM and 12hr time. In 1.10 the template's changed and it doesn't appear you can make that same template change. There is nothing in Features/General or Wiki (or Calendar) Admin that fixes this. The Calendar in 1.10 respects the date but not the time setting in Admin/General/Long and Short date & time format settings. Unless I am missing something if you use 12hr time you may have to stop using the calendar.

You need to edit the calendarlib.php library (look at/near line 193). It appears that the time is hardcoded as %H:%M. You can change it there.
