[SOLVED][Lang pack issue] Call to a member function format() on bool was created by Mick_20

Hello,

I recently installed the free version !Cagenda on Joomla 3.10.11 and immediately when creating the first event I got an error:

Call to a member function format() on bool

See screenshot

Can you help me figure this out?

Hello,

First, try with turning on error reporting option of Joomla as well as debug mode to get more informations on the issue.

And after, do a test with English language.
As it's maybe due to a missing functionnality in Joomla 3, which could give trouble with some languages (just found one with cz-CZ).

Joomla 4 is not concerned by this issue.

Best regards,
Cyril

Replaced the date strings in the administrator /ru_RU/ru-RU.ini file with a different format

from
;DATE_FORMAT_CALENDAR_DATE="%d-%m-%Y"
;DATE_FORMAT_CALENDAR_DATETIME="%d-%m-%Y %H:%M:%S"
;DATE_FORMAT_FILTER_DATE="d.m.Y"
;DATE_FORMAT_FILTER_DATETIME="d-m-Y, H:i:s"

to
DATE_FORMAT_CALENDAR_DATE="%Y-%m-%d"
DATE_FORMAT_CALENDAR_DATETIME="%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"
DATE_FORMAT_FILTER_DATE="Y-m-d"
DATE_FORMAT_FILTER_DATETIME="Y-m-d H:i:s"

Hello,

I think you don't need to edit language strings with latest iCagenda version, which includes the patch for J3 ;-)

Hello,

There's an issue in last version if submit form send and no date entered for period...

Attached a version with a patch (which will be included in next version 3.8.16 coming soon).
If you could install it and test it to confirm issue is fixed ?

Thank you!
Best regards,

Hello,
Could you confirm that with another language (English for example), you don't have the issue?
Best regards,

So, the issue is not in iCagenda, but the ru-RU language pack for J3.

Mick was is the good way!

The error is having a different format for date and datetime strings for calendar picker filters.

The solution is to replace J3 strings by J4 strings in file ROOT/administrator/language/ru-RU/ru-RU.ini on lines 1009 to 1012.

Replace this:

DATE_FORMAT_CALENDAR_DATE="%d-%m-%Y"
DATE_FORMAT_CALENDAR_DATETIME="%d-%m-%Y %H:%M:%S"
DATE_FORMAT_FILTER_DATE="d.m.Y"
DATE_FORMAT_FILTER_DATETIME="d-m-Y, H:i:s"

By this (J4 strings):

DATE_FORMAT_CALENDAR_DATE="%d.%m.%Y"
DATE_FORMAT_CALENDAR_DATETIME="%d.%m.%Y, %H:%M:%S"
DATE_FORMAT_FILTER_DATE="d.m.Y"
DATE_FORMAT_FILTER_DATETIME="d.m.Y, H:i:s"

Hope this helps?

Would be good to inform ru-RU translation team ;-)
