In “Personal Settings” I have:
Locations: England
Language: English (British English)
Locale: English (United Kingdom)

Which means I get logical dates, the correct timezone but unfortunately the week starts a day late on Monday.

rainydayz · July 11, 2023, 7:03pm

There is “English (United Kingdom)” in the user settings. It’s the default & it’s right at the top of the menu, away from the rest of the “English (…)” options. It doesn’t get highlighted when you start typing King… & I missed it because I was using a laptop with a small screen & never scrolled all the way up.

That’s because, officially, Sunday no longer is the first day of the week. Officially, Sunday is not the first day of the week

MartinRushton · July 12, 2023, 7:49am

I suspect that you have been mislead by a bunch of bureaucrats in Geneva:

“ISO 8601 Data elements and interchange formats – Information interchange – Representation of dates and times” is an international standard covering the exchange of date- and time-related data.

bb77 · July 12, 2023, 11:24am

Yes you got me. I’m neither British nor do I live there, but most internet sources I’ve found do list the countries of the UK as countries where the week starts on Monday. In practice, however, it seems that many still consider Sunday the first day of the week.

On the actual topic: I don’t know if this is a “bug” or if it is intentional and simply reflects the “official” ISO norm. The best solution would probably be, if it would be configurable independently from the language and locale settings. Maybe you can open an issue on GitHub for this, if none exists yet.

MartinRushton · July 12, 2023, 4:36pm

Well as someone who has lived in England for all my life the first day of the week is Sunday. I know for business purposes there has recently been ISO1801, but I’m not aware that that has replaced some 1400 years of tradition.

ernolf · July 12, 2023, 6:23pm

You must choose “English” (without “World”, “Europe” or any “Country” apended):

For me that results in displaying sunday as first day of the week in Calendar.

For people that do not get Monday as first day, propably have set locale forced to ‘en’ in config.php

When I switch to “Afrikaans”:

in order to get the 24 hours scheme, it unfortunately does not show sunday as first day of the week in calendar.

+1

Fullack!

Interesting. Trouble is I want a 24 hour clock so I’ll have to put up with some weird import rewriting custom. Grrr.
