      It is in English :
      Anniversaire : March 6, 1980
      Anyway to have it in French ?

      From :

      To format dates in other languages, you should use the setlocale() and strftime() functions.

        Conflict between the detailed date format, adding a paid subscription, and adding a scheduled task :
        - index.php
        - admincp/subscriptions.php?do=add
        - admincp/cronadmin.php?do=edit

        With the detailed date format, it should be like this :
        - 1 minute ago
        - 2 minutes ago
        - 1 hour ago
        - 2 hours ago
        - 1 day ago
        - 2 days ago
        - 1 week ago
        - 2 weeks ago

        When adding a paid subscription, it should be like this :
        - weeks
        - months
        - years


        When adding a scheduled task, it should be like this :
        - Day of the month
        - Hour
        - Minute

        The conflict is between small letters and capital letters.
        When adding a scheduled task, "hour" and "minute" need to start with a capital letter. For everything else, all time units need to be in small letters in French.

        But they are the same vbphrases : hour and minute. So this why there is a conflict.

        What I suggest is to add two more vbphrases for the scheduled tasks :
        hour_title
        minute_title
        This way a distinction would be possible between units and titles.

          You are asking us to make disctinctions that we don't even make for English. There are many cases where we use a plural or singular word where the other should be used if we were being proper (in English). Same for the case of a word.

            I know. Most of our translation looks like :
            {1} sauvegardé(e)(s)
            {1} supprimé(e)(s)
            {1} envoyé(e)(s)
            {1} déplacé(e)(s)

            And here is a sample :
            Écraser le/la Langue
            (En sélectionnant un(e) langue ici, le/la langue importé(e) écrasera le/la langue existant(e). Laissez tel quel pour créer un(e) nouveau/elle langue)
            We even had to translate "All" to "Tou(te)s", can you believe that ?

            But we cannot bracket a small/capital letter, this is why I ask for this small addition.

            And if I were you, I would remove a lot of phrase compressions, because they are awful to translate.

            For Beta 5, I might create a report of what shouldn't be a construct of overlapping phrases.


            I just remember that translating Neverwinter Nights was far bigger, but far easier !

              You should wait until beta 5 to make any more suggestions in regards to phrases as they have been changed with easier translation in mind. You can look for it next week.

                  Has this missing phrase on Beta 5 been reported?

                  Admin CP > Smilies> Smilie Manager> Add Multiple Smilies

                  When you click on the button when there are no smilies to add, I get the following message:

                  Could not find phrase 'no_new_smilies'.

                    If it's a Beta 5 language issue, you can report it :
                    here -> https://forum.vbulletin.com/node/81258

                    I will make a link to your post.
