How can I use FA with Jalali calendar ?
Is any way to implement and use Jalali calendar with FA?

Re: Jalali calendar

Hi,

Look into the file, config.php, in the root of the FA installation

About line 132 you will the following lines:

    /* Date systems. 0 = traditional, 1 = Jalali used by Iran, nabour countries, Afghanistan and some other Central Asian nations,
    2 = Islamic used by other arabic nations. 3 = traditional, but where non-workday is Friday and start of week is Saturday */
    $date_system = 0;

Set the $date_system = 1;

This will implement the Jalali calender smile

/Joe

Thank you Joe!

But the Solar Hijri year begins about 21 March of each Gregorian year and ends about 20 March of the next year.
Modern calendar: Solar Hijri (SH)

Solar Hijri algorithmic calendar

Re: Jalali calendar

The best (and, indeed, the only reasonable) way would be to treat it as another date format. There is absolutely no reason to change how it's stored internally.
