    Hello, I would like the format of the date is displayed in French and not in English, is it possible?

    rwmb_the_value(rw_date_prochaine_ceremonie, array('format' => 'j F Y')

    Yes, that's possible. To output the date in a different format, please use this code:

    rwmb_the_value( $field_id, array( 'format' => 'F j, Y' ) );

    Thank you Anh Tran, I misspoke, sorry, I would like to translate the months, not change the format.

    I got it. Please use the date_i18n function as follows:

    $date = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'field_id', true );
echo date_i18n( 'F j, Y', $date );

    For more info, please check this docs.

    Hi Han Tran,
    thanks for your reply.

    Your code only return the current date in french format, not the date field content in french format.
    How can we make it work ?
