@malouk in pretty much all of Europe and many other countries around the world :)

So it would be great to have the choice as a wpForo setting.

Hello,

The problem stems from the fact that WordPress uses the PHP number_format function instead of the WordPress number_format_i18n function (in the functions.php file).

function wpforo_print_number( $n, $echo = false ) {
	$x      = str_replace( ",", "", $n );
	$x      = intval( $x );
	$n      = 0 + $x;
	$number = 0;
	if( ! is_numeric( $n ) ) return false;
	if( $n > 1000000000000 ) {
		$number = round( ( $n / 1000000000000 ), 1 ) . ' ' . str_replace( '{number}', '', wpforo_phrase( '{number}T', false ) );
	} else if( $n > 1000000000 ) {
		$number = round( ( $n / 1000000000 ), 1 ) . ' ' . str_replace( '{number}', '', wpforo_phrase( '{number}B', false ) );
	} else if( $n > 1000000 ) {
		$number = round( ( $n / 1000000 ), 1 ) . ' ' . str_replace( '{number}', '', wpforo_phrase( '{number}M', false ) );
	} else if( $n > 10000 ) $number = round( ( $n / 1000 ), 1 ) . ' ' . str_replace( '{number}', '', wpforo_phrase( '{number}K', false ) );
	
	$number = ( $number ) ? $number : number_format( $n );
	
	if( $echo ) {
		echo $number;
	} else {
		return $number;
	}
}

this should be

function wpforo_print_number( $n, $echo = false ) {
	$x      = str_replace( ",", "", $n );
	$x      = intval( $x );
	$n      = 0 + $x;
	$number = 0;
	if( ! is_numeric( $n ) ) return false;
	if( $n > 1000000000000 ) {
		$number = round( ( $n / 1000000000000 ), 1 ) . ' ' . str_replace( '{number}', '', wpforo_phrase( '{number}T', false ) );
	} else if( $n > 1000000000 ) {
		$number = round( ( $n / 1000000000 ), 1 ) . ' ' . str_replace( '{number}', '', wpforo_phrase( '{number}B', false ) );
	} else if( $n > 1000000 ) {
		$number = round( ( $n / 1000000 ), 1 ) . ' ' . str_replace( '{number}', '', wpforo_phrase( '{number}M', false ) );
	} else if( $n > 10000 ) $number = round( ( $n / 1000 ), 1 ) . ' ' . str_replace( '{number}', '', wpforo_phrase( '{number}K', false ) );
	
	$number = ( $number ) ? $number : number_format_i18n( $n );
	
	if( $echo ) {
		echo $number;
	} else {
		return $number;
	}
}

Hello,

In the French, Belgian, and Swiss systems, the decimal separator is represented by a comma and the thousands separator by a space.

Hello,

Is it possible to change the thousands separator ?

By a space or a punt ?
