@a_askari
Please read this post , I think it will give you an idea
http://pkp.sfu.ca/support/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=2068

& to change the date & time format you can find the following codes in config.inc.php file located in your root directory.

Short and long date formats
date_format_trunc = “%m-%d”
date_format_short = “%Y-%m-%d”
date_format_long = “%B %e, %Y”
datetime_format_short = “%Y-%m-%d %I:%M %p”
datetime_format_long = “%B %e, %Y - %I:%M %p”

Please inform the forum if your problem is not solved.

Ok Here is a link of an OJS plugin which converts from Gregorian to Jalali.
Please download this plugin and install it.
Here we must be thankful to the developer who made this plugin
The authors I think are “Mahmoud Saghaei and Alec Smecher”

Hi @a_askari,

That plugin isn’t being actively maintained by the PKP team, but I don’t believe it would take much effort to ensure it’s working with OJS 2.4.6. Can you describe how it behaves when you try to install/use it?

hi mr. askari,
Please specify exactly which subfolders should I copy these files to? Is there anything else besides copying?
