Roman month dates

What about a Roman month dates? I did this in the standard WordPress date field ($text = str_replace(‘January’, ‘I’, $text);). However, the standard field does not allow HTML. Can you add Roman numera

曜日が日本語で表示された!

曜日を日本語で表示するには数字で表示を選択して一つづつ指定する必要があるのか、困っていましたが、mon-sunで指定したら普通に日本語の月-日で表示されました。WPのサイトの言語で対応してくれてるんですね! 時刻と曜日だけ表示したかったけど、シンプルと思いきやなかなか思ったサンプルコードがなかったので大変助かりました! ありがとうございます💛
