I placed the file jquery.ui.datepicker-sv.js in mydomain.com/wp-content/plugins/gravityforms/js/ Then I added the following code to functions.php <pre><code>add_action("gform_enqueue_scripts", "enqueue_custom_script", 10, 2); function enqueue_custom_script($form, $is_ajax){ if($is_ajax){ wp_enqueue_script("custom_script", "http://www.mydomain.com/wp-content/plugins/gravityforms/js/jquery.ui.datepicker-sv.js"); } }</code></pre> No result. Then I added the second code to header.php file of the the Genesis framework from Studiopress. <pre><code><?php /* WARNING: This file is part of the core Genesis framework. DO NOT edit this file under any circumstances. Please do all modifications in the form of a child theme. */ /** * Handles the header structure. * * This file is a core Genesis file and should not be edited. * * @category Genesis * @package Templates * @author StudioPress * @license <a href="http://www.opensource.org/licenses/gpl-license.php" rel="nofollow">http://www.opensource.org/licenses/gpl-license.php</a> GPL v2.0 (or later) * @link <a href="http://www.studiopress.com/themes/genesis" rel="nofollow">http://www.studiopress.com/themes/genesis</a> */ do_action( 'genesis_doctype' ); do_action( 'genesis_title' ); do_action( 'genesis_meta' ); wp_head(); /** we need this for plugins **/ ?> <script type="text/javascript"> jQuery(document).ready(function($) { $.datepicker.setDefaults($.datepicker.regional["sv"]); }); </script> </head> <body <?php body_class(); ?>> <?php do_action( 'genesis_before' ); ?> <div id="wrap"> <?php do_action( 'genesis_before_header' ); do_action( 'genesis_header' ); do_action( 'genesis_after_header' ); echo '<div id="inner">'; genesis_structural_wrap( 'inner' );</code></pre> But still the dates show up in the English language. As I have mentioned before - my knowledge of working with scripts is really limited and obviously I do something completely wrong here. So further help is appreciated.

Put the following in your functions.php file for your theme: <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_enqueue_scripts" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_enqueue_scripts</a> Making sure the JS file you point at is the jquery.ui.datepicker-sv.js This should make it so all your date pickers use the Swedish language file. If not, then look at this: <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Where_Do_I_Put_This_Code%3F" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Where_Do_I_Put_This_Code%3F</a> Put the following JS code in your head (or header.php) file: <pre><code>$.datepicker.setDefaults($.datepicker.regional["sv"]);</code></pre> ilmedia on "Date function in foreign language" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/date-function-in-foreign-language#post-60759 Wed, 30 May 2012 09:34:58 +0000 ilmedia 60759@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ Hi, thanks for the link. Unfortunately I have no knowledge of jQeury and do not know where to start. The dates should be translated into the Swedish languge and I think I have found the right file here: <a href="http://jquery-ui.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ui/i18n/jquery.ui.datepicker-sv.js" rel="nofollow">http://jquery-ui.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ui/i18n/jquery.ui.datepicker-sv.js</a> Then I have found two files that seem to be of interest: ui.datepicker.js datepicker.js The instructions tell me the following: "The desired localization file should be included after the main datepicker code." And here I am completely lost. I suppose it is the code I have refered to above but where exaclty should I include it? I have no idea where the 'main datepicker code' is. Thus, all help appreciated.

However, the site is non-english so I would like to "translate" the weekdays (SU, MO, TU etc). I tried to translate the GF files but as I understand the date function origins from some javascript so that did not work. How do I do this? Regards Dale
