How can PHP developers localize date formats in a pre-built CMS that displays English month names?

To localize date formats in a pre-built CMS that displays English month names, PHP developers can use the setlocale() function to set the desired locale for date formatting. By setting the locale to a specific language, the date functions will automatically localize the month names accordingly.

// Set the desired locale for date formatting
setlocale(LC_TIME, 'fr_FR');

// Display the current date with the localized month names
echo strftime('%A %d %B %Y');
