User language at registration

Gerard,
Do you mean that their profile is imported in English. Or do you mean that after they register, your site's language is set to English so that all content is displayed in English?

I just registered (username 'sourcecoast') and everything was in French after I registered. I didn't see English anywhere, so if you can explain more, that would help.

Thanks,
Alex

Gerard,
We've tried to do a bit of testing, but haven't been able to recreate your problem. If the English language pack has been uninstalled from your site, the default language (whatever that is) shouldn't be used.

JFBConnect does work with the System - Language Filter plugin (part of Joomla), which will attempt to detect the language of the users browser. If detected *and* that language exists on your site, JFBConnect will set the new user's language to their browser language. It's meant to make things easier on the user by using their language by default. There is nothing hard-coded in JFBConnect to always use English at all.

If that doesn't seem to be the case for you, or if English isn't even available on your site, then I'd be unsure of the answer. Would it be possible to get admin access to your site to understand your configuration better?

Thanks,
Alex

The login/password you sent didn't work for me. Can you please verify and re-send?

As for the Language Switcher, yes, what you said for the setup sounds like what you'd want. We've done a lot of testing with multi-lingual sites, and the above configuration should work. However, there are a ton of different ways to configure multi-lingual setups, so definitely test with any changes you make to ensure no undesired effects happen.

Thanks,
Alex

Fantastic!
