[OJS3.0.2] Backend and Working Language

Hi all,

we’re working on a 2 language OJS system – german and english. When I log into the backend, the backend language is always german, but I want to work in english. Defining the User Profile > Contact / Working Languages to »English« has no effect. Is there an option to choose the working language for the backend permanently?

Thanks
Tobias

Hi @twa

As admin/journal manager you will have to install and enable both languages under Settings > Website > Languages.

Best,
Bozana

@bozana, I’ve already done this. But is it possible to define somewhere, that the language of the backend is always English?

Thanks
Tobias

Hi @twa

No, at the moment not – first the journal primary language is displayed and then user have to switch if he/she wants…

Best,
Bozana
