Hello,

i have upgrade my site to joomla 3.7.5 and K2 2.8.

After the update the "published date" info is not good. See my screenshot.

Anyone an idea what is going wrong here?

Are you using any overrides in the language string?
Can you share a link to your site?

Problem solved. It was only an update of the K2 dutch language package!

Sorry to jump in on this and bump it.

Can you please explain how you fixed this?

I updated Joomla (to 3.7.5) and K2 (2.8.0) today and am encountering a similar or the same issue with the published date displaying with % signs (see imgur link). All was fine before the update. For the life of me I can't work out how to fix.

Any ideas?

Think I might have solved it.

Somehow in upgrade the date format in the language file (en-GB.com_k2.ini) got messed up?!

I've manually edited it for now using PHP date formats and it appears to have worked.

Hello,

I have now the same problem. The date is not correct > %AM, %23. %341 %2015 %09:%Jun
For example: alexanderriegler.at/kompetenz-akademie/health-literacy-top/artikel-in-der-bezirkszeitung-eggenberg

I use Joomla 3.8.0 and K2 2.8.0. Configuration > Time Zone: Vienna

Update:
Language File de-AT 3.7.5.1

No overrides or hacks. Standard

Where can I find the error?

Thanks for helping.
Best regards,
Alex

For me the error was in the language file: en_GB.com_k2.ini

Look for the date format lines, for me these were showing as:

K2_DATE_FORMAT="%d/%m/%Y - %H:%M"
K2_DATE_FORMAT_LC2="%A, %d %B %Y %H:%M"
K2_DATE_FORMAT_LC="%A, %d %B %Y"

I removed the % signs and reformatted them to how I wanted them to be using PHP date format rules from php.net/manual/en/function.date.php
