    Hi all, need help changing the date format here please.
    I’m running mmm calendarext3 ( with the default calendar hidden) and ext3agenda (with the default calendar showing holiday).

    My date is currently November 30. Am trying to get it to show 30 November across the board.

    I have tried changing time format to absolute and changing date format to desire but nothing works.
    Next tried changing the locale to say FR, the date format changed but it’s in French.

    Any ideas?

      You can set a locale as “en-GB” to get English, DD MM.
      Then to get Week starting from Sunday, you can adjust “firstDayOfWeek:0".

        What is your locale? I mean Which country are you living in? Or what cultural or lingual base?
        For example I’m a Korean living in Germany but cannit speak German.
        So in my case, I set MM’s default language as “en” but, with the “en” locale, calendar system of CX3 will follow US style, not International standard.(In the US, The week will start from Sunday, The first week of year will start from 1.Jan. General date format will be mm dd yyyy)
        Therefore I set the locale of CX3 as “en-GB”, because I need English version ISO type calendar (The week will start from Monday, first week of year should include 4. Jan. and General date format will be dd mm yyyy.)

              @MMRIZE so under the let config at the top section, i leave language and locale as default ya?
              language: “en”,
              locale: “en-US”,
              logLevel: [“INFO”, “LOG”, “WARN”, “ERROR”], // Add “DEBUG” for even more logging
              timeFormat: “24”,

              then in cx3 config i insert -
              module: “MMM-CalendarExt3”,
              position: “bottom_bar”,
              title: “”,
              config: {
              locale: “en-GB”,

              but nothing’s changed…

                    dateFormat : "Do MMM", for the default calendar config, maybe. I hope so…

                      @MMRIZE it doesnt work. i have tried timeFormat to absolute as well.
                      tried inputting locale to default calendar module as well.
                      all doesnt work.

                      btw the default calendar module is part of your cx3. in your cx3 it requires the configuration of default cal module.

                      for the cx3agenda, i have hidden the default cal module.

                        The default calendar is not part of mine. My module just use it’s broadcasted event list. So mines are dependent to that module, but its working is not my responsibility.

                        To hide some module, set CSS as display:none for that module, or just remove position from config.
