Hi

Sorry, but I dont really understand your question.

Do you mean, when you create or edit a K2 item and change the Created or Start/Finishing publishing date, it is only show date format and not date and time format?

I checked this in Joomla 1.5.23 and K2 v2.4.1 and if you change the Created of Start/Finishing publishing date then the time is added.

If so, I would suggest for the time being simply add the time manually in format as 06:34:09 H:M:S

I have logged the issue I found.

it happen when you create or edit articles, always time, but always time, the only way is put like you say manual this format 12-10-2011, but is very "disturb" when you have a lot of articles... i hope you can tell me something, in joomla 1.6 with old versión of k2 all was perfect, with joomla 1.7 + last versión K2 have this problem.. last night i install a new copy of joomla 1.7 with only module k2, and is the same thing.


the error is :

500 - Ha ocurrido un error.

DateTime::__construct() [datetime.--construct]: Failed to parse time string (Domingo, 16 Octubre 2011) at position 0 (D): The timezone could not be found in the database

posible the language spanish language have a error with variable date¿?

is the same error like this old post:

community.getk2.org/forum/topics/k2-25-beta-on-joomla-16-date?commentId=3536014%3AComment%3A298077

There is two different time showing setting, one for the backend and one for the frontend. I got a similar error, when I saved an item its creation date is always "1999.11.30 01:00:00".

But, first thing first.

I'm a coordinator/maintaine of the hungarian language, so first I modified all of the date and time settings, according to hungarian grammar.

There is four ini files, where you can modify date and time settings. Backend, frontend, comment and content ini. The original settings is this:
K2_DATE_FORMAT="%d/%m/%Y - %H:%M"
K2_DATE_FORMAT_CALENDAR="%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"
K2_DATE_FORMAT_LC2="%A, %d %B %Y %H:%M"
K2_DATE_FORMAT_LC="%A, %d %B %Y"

I modified all of it to the hungarian grammar: year, month, day, and all hypen to point.
K2_DATE_FORMAT="%Y.%m.%d. %H:%M"
K2_DATE_FORMAT_CALENDAR="%Y.%m.%d. %H:%M:%S"
K2_DATE_FORMAT_LC="%Y. %B %d. %A"
K2_DATE_FORMAT_LC2="%Y. %B %d. %A %H:%M"

But after this if I saved or modified an item, the creation and modified date always is "1999.11.30 01:00:00".

So what I did is I reverted the modification, but only on the backend. This is what I got now:
K2_DATE_FORMAT="%Y-%m-%d %H:%M"
K2_DATE_FORMAT_CALENDAR="%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"
K2_DATE_FORMAT_LC2="%Y. %B %d. %A %H:%M"
K2_DATE_FORMAT_LC="%Y. %B %d. %A"

FORMAT and FORMAT_CALENDAR only, the rest of it are ok. I checked it and finally it works. (Note: the separator is not hypens just points) Probably the backend date and time setting not meant to be changed.

I checked the spanish backend.ini and I found the almost the same:
K2_DATE_FORMAT="%d/%m/%Y - %H:%M"
K2_DATE_FORMAT_CALENDAR="%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"

Remove the provost "/" and change it to hypens (as in the CALENDAR), then check it on your server. I'm not sure its helps, but for me, it works. In the original english backend file are the same, but who knows.

Ok, after try a lot thing, i ve thebackend working date with versión 2.4 from es-es.com_k2.ini

but in frontend, still all articles like this format:

%PM, %16 %886 %2011 %20:%Oct

the same in comments:

%PM, %16 %953 %2011 %21:%Oct publicado por yf

I found these on the spanish joomla translation:
