P: Months in non-English configurations show in English

Yes, it is fixed in new Lightroom CC 2015.5/6.5 update. Problem solved. Thank you all for your replies...

Yes, if you use the date variable to create folders. But if you use it to create captions it looks somewhat ugly!

Thanks for the confirmation. "DD" format should allow Lr to be more consistent in terms of sorting the entries alphabetically.

Problem solved by todays update (named 2015.5 - somewhat anachronistic...)! Thank you!

But the date variabel should be updated/enhanced with the format "D" as an alternative to "DD", meaning that you should be able to generate "8 mars" instead of "08 mars". 

The month name in the variable Date in the Print module (Photo Info) and Book module (Photo Text) is not translated to your language. It's in english regardless of what language you set Lightroom to. 

Peculiar: If I switch to for example Swedish or German in Lightroom settings, the date format changes, but not the language of the month names.


This is really irritating if you're preparing a +100 page book with photos where the caption is date taken.

Maybe connected: When you use the "Date" variabel in Photo Text /Photo Info in the Print and Book module the month name is always in english.

The same here, Just noticed now that all my filenames which I rename after each import with "XYZ - date" have month names in English instead of Italian, in all 2016 photos I have..

The same problem: instead of Maart/2016 I now have March/2016

When importing in Lr 6.4 the full name of the month in the "date format" is now always shown in English instead of the localised name. So currently I get "2016/February" (English) instead of the expected "2016/Februar" (German).

Changing the Language in the Settings did not make any difference. Worked fine under the previous Lr 6.3.

Observed on both OS X 10.9.5 Mavericks and 10.11.3 El Capitan.
