How to show full name of the month?

[petrivirta]

I’m using events calendar PRO and an mini-calendar widget.

How could I change that widget will show the full name of the month instead first three letters? (dec->december)

Hello you just have to change the settings in wordpress general settings…the event calendar take the same format as the default settings of wordpress…for the full month it’s “F” january to december
for example l j F Y give you monday 24 december 2013

the F replace the M in the date format…look this link for all you need with date format http://php.net/manual/fr/function.date.php

I wanna show full month in widgets month picker.
I changed ‘M’ to ‘F’ in file public/template-tags/widgets.php , but it’s not working. It shows nothing then. What is the right place to put that ‘F’ or what another files I need to change?

What is

Hi petrivirta,

I’m guessing you mean the date at the top of the calendar widget and no where else – “Dec” in the example below?

If so, please review our Themer’s Guide first of all: you would probably in this case be interested in overriding and customizing pro/widgets/mini-calendar/grid.php – locate this piece of code:

<?php tribe_events_the_mini_calendar_title(); ?>

Which you might change to:

<?php
$args = tribe_events_get_mini_calendar_args();
echo date_i18n( 'F Y', strtotime( $args['eventDate'] ) )
?>

Does that help here?
