Switching admin language does not work ! - spyto - 2022-01-23
Hello,
I installed an english version of MyBB, then I uploaded my French language pack :
https://community.mybb.com/mods.php?action=download&pid=78
When I try to switch admin language to french in Configuration/General Configuration/Defaul language, it does not work.
By examining /inc/settings.php file, I noticed that $settings['bblanguage'] parameter has changed rather than $settings['cplanguage']!
Now, by examining the page source code, the <select> tag for changing language is :
<select name="upsetting[bblanguage]" id="setting_bblanguage">
<option value="english" selected="selected">English (American)</option>
<option value="french">French (Français)</option>
</select>I think it should be cplanguage, not bblanguage!
I did not know how long this error exists, it's one of our members of Mybb.fr that pointed out to me.
Regards
Spyto

That's the language for the board itself. The language for the ACP is changed at ACP > Preferences (in the sidebar on the ACP homepage).

Thanks for answer. It works...
Why keeping "Configuration/General Configuration/Default language" select if no longer used?

As I said, that’s for the front end forum. The ACP just has a separate setting.

Ok, thanks,
I misunderstood... sorry.
