Metabox date month number to word
The code you are using is specifically for the month abbreviation, (Oct). You should be using this: function eventposttype_get_the_month($month) { global $wp_locale; for ( $i = 1; $i < 13; $i = $i +1 ) { if ( $i == $month ) $month =$wp_locale->get_month( $i ) ; } return $monthabbr; }
