qTranslate for WP 3.0

[Person]

All my time and date formats on posts and comments end up as stuff like %A %e %B %Y. After doing some debugging, I discovered that somehow the percentages in the date formats are getting doubled, so that "%A %B %e%q, %Y" ends up being parsed as "%%A %%B %%e%%q, %%Y", which leads to qTranslate being unable to properly handle the date and time format, resulting in a garbled output. The solution is as simple as adding one line at the top of the qtrans_strftime function in qtranslate_core.php (line 408):

function qtrans_strftime($format, $date, $default = '', $before = '', $after = '') {
$format = str_replace('%%','%',$format);
(...)

Edit: Actually, it appears that the offending line is in the qtrans_convertDateFormatToStrftimeFormat function. The percentages are getting doubled here (line 144 of qtranslate_utils.php):

$date_parameters[] = '#%#'; $strftime_parameters[] = '%%';

If you remove one of those %'s at the end, then the parsing is corrected.

It seems as though the dashboard translation is not working, yet. Tried different themes.

Wonderful work, Qian, thanks a lot! I just donated a few Euros - these efforts deserve any support!
I use the plugin on a completely new blog, and (almost) erverythings seems to work perfectly.

Hi, how/ where do I add the language tags manually please? The main "post screen" only allows me to edit multiple titles and multiple Excerpts, but not multiple post contents.
I'm on qT 2.5.8 and WP 3.0. Thanks.

Hi Person. Super tip from you!
I had the same problem and I deleted this doble %% at the end of the line 144. Now is it in the English Language correct, but in the German Language it is allways broken. It shows :

qTranslate is still buggy in WP 3.0

1. It inserts <p> </p> before and after every article in all languages!
2. It inserts <p> </p> before and after every line in the 2nd language!

Can someone help how could we fix it?

If I click HTML mode just before clicking save, the bug is not present. Do you know any quick fix for this?
