I'm clicking on the map instead of using "use my "location". I'm not sure if that's important.

I actually get the names of the months in Spanish. I'm not sure if it's an obscure browser setting or how the site detects it.

It gets the country from the browser rather than the location, but maybe I should change that.

I guess that makes sense with the month names since they’re coming from the js Date object. Are the weekday names in Spanish also then?

What would you need the month/weekday names customization for?

For me are fine. I thought in the printed were only available only in English and for some weird reason I was seeing the online version in Spanish. I still don't thrust javascript.

One interesting cases, some people (I!!) have a strong opinion about "sePtiembre" vs "setiembre".

For weekdays, perhaps a shorthand "L Ma Mi J V S D" instead of the full names. I have no strong opinion. (I recently saw "L M X J V S D", but I'm not sure it's usual somewhere.) For a calendar I think I prefer the full name.

Interesting -- "setiembre" is new to me. Would 7° also then be "setima"?

I don't have custom names yet, but I think full Spanish support should be working now (though only with newly created calendars, since the language is determined at the start).
