Persian Calendar is supported?

Hello,

Sorry I am unsure what Persian Calendar is?

We can support different languages and have a Persian language pack here:

Thanks

It is just language translation. I need using persian calendar instead of Gregorian calendar. More detail about persian calendar: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iranian_calendars

Thank you.

I did once implement a template override for a gold member of the JEvents club that converted the dates to Hijri dates but it was not practical to maintain this since it was so specialised.

Sorry

Do you have any document for working how it's calendar work? Maybe i can implement it.

Hi again
at first i must say that if you can do the jalali calendar for me , i'll become the gold member ( you can consider the localization as part of gold members support)
i've attached the Persian localized file to this comment
this is how joomla localized the Gregorian calendar to Jalali calendar
you might take a look at this file to find how it done

Some tips about jalali calendar :
days name :
saturday : ????
sunday : ??????
monday : ??????
tuesday : ?? ????
wednesday : ????????
thursday : ??? ????
friday : ????

and the first day of week is saturday
the year have 365 days ( 366 days each 4 year as known as "kabise"
this calendar have 12 months , the first 6 month have 31 days , the next 5 months have 30 days , the last month have 29 day ( 30 day each 4 year "kabise"
the year starts at 21 march
Regards

It may be possible to present the jalali date alongside the gregorian date in the output but it won't be possible to navigate by month based on a non-gregorian calendar. If you therefore limit yourself to day, week and date range lists views of events then it may suit your needs - note that the event creation pages will require you to enter event dates using the gregorian calendar though

Would that work for you?

Hi again,
Yes, I think that work for me.

Thank you.

Hi Again, Could you present it to jalali date?

How good are your PHP skills?

It's Good.

So what to do? What not to do?

If you join the JEvents club as a silver member I could give you a copy of the files I created for Hijri calendar and you could then make the analagous changes to your preferred calendar.

Please note that this is a specialised requirement so there is only a limited amount of support I could provide but if you have good PHP skills you should be able to implement the changes you want as a series of template overrides.
