Hi, How do i set my language as Default ?

What did i miss, i setup it like this

a. add my language folder in root/language/ and also in root/modules/xxx/language also others place where language folder exists
b. change the Preferences - General Settings - Default Language
c. Install xlanguage module
d. Add base language, my local language and English language
f. Activate block language
g. try to change language using block - success

but my site default language is still English .. i need to click the flag image in the language block to change to my local language,

i've cleared my cache, use incognito and private browser mode and also use another pc..same problem

if i deactive uninstall the xlanguage module, i will see my translation

Im using
XOOPS Version XOOPS 2.5.11-Beta2
PHP Version 7.4.21
MySQL Version 5.5.5-10.4.20-MariaDB
xlanguage 3.1.2

i made some self troubleshooting testing with xoops 2.5.11 beta and xlanguage 3.1.2 with different browsers

a. Firefox - remove english as language settings in browser
- clear cache now my translation is working as default without clicking the flag image

b. chrome - remove english language from setting
- clear cache - translation not working

im not sure if this got to do with browser language setting but if i used the old xlanguage, i dont have this problem

Thanks for reporting it!

All sounds very strange, but I'll look into it and do some testing.

Hi Liomj

I used the 3.1.2 xlangage module on XOOPS 2.5.11 beta2 with 2 bases languages :
- main language : French ([xfr][/xfr])
- other base language : English ([xen][/xen])

I used Google Chrome and I have not your problem.
After cleaned cache, the site is on the main language, french.

Just a question :
Do you used extented languages ?
IF yes,
may be the problem is here.
SO, If yes,
please try to test with 2 bases languages, not with extension and see the result...

Just an idea...

I was able to replicate the behavior. It seems like xLanguage insists on using English as the "default" language, unless you select it actively via xLanguage.

I'll look now how to make it more consistent. ..

Strange,
did you create Config file ?

Tab Manage Languages, bottom ! (create config file).

In my config file :
    $cachedConfig['xlanguage_base'] = array(
        
"english"=>array(
            
"lang_id"=>1,
            
"weight"=>20,
            
"lang_name"=>"english",
            
"lang_desc"=>"English version",
            
"lang_code"=>"xen",
            
"lang_charset"=>"UTF-8",
            
"lang_image"=>"english.gif"
        
),
        
"french"=>array(
            
"lang_id"=>2,
            
"weight"=>10,
            
"lang_name"=>"french",
            
"lang_desc"=>"Version française",
            
"lang_code"=>"xfr",
            
"lang_charset"=>"UTF-8",
            
"lang_image"=>"french.gif"
        
),
    );
?>

LiomJ,
could you test the 3.1.3 RC-1 version and let me know if it works for you?

It seems working the site is now in default my local translation

but now it introduces a new issue - blocks and contents are not translating it will show the tags with the translation

Resized Image

only after clicking the flag image it will translate
