Hello

Do you have suggestion how to force Croatian localization for FB buttons?

Take a look at this url:
www.trusty.hr/scena/knjige-i-mediji/22-p...a-za-ljeto-2014.html

In Firefox it is fully in English (as I have English FF version installed)
In IE its in both English and Croatian: Recommend and Share is in Croatian,
and text part is "bi-lingual: "Registriraj se / to see what your friends recommend."
I tried to add hr-HR in Facebook Language Locale Override setting in Facebook tab configuration, but it's still the same.
(I tried also other combinations: hr-HR hr-hr hr_hr hr_HR)

Website is in Croatian language only so I'd like that FB buttons stays Croatian as well

If I change Content button - Like > Verb to Display setting into "Like", than in IE, all buttons and text are fully translated,
but in FF it still stays in English.

(Chrome have same behavior like IE)

In joomla language settings, Croatian is set as default for frontend, and only Croatian language is set in Language Manager: Content Languages.
Language tag for Croatian language is hr-HR

Joomla 3.3.1
JFBC 6.0.6.
RocketTheme template

Facebook will change the language based on a few factors:
* If you are logged into Facebook with an account that is set for a specific language, that language will be used regardless of your settings.
* If your browser specifies a language, that will be used
* If neither of the above applies, then the language that is set by JFBConnect (which would be Croatian, since that's your Joomla default) will be used.

There's no way to force the language to always be Croatian, because Facebook can choose better than that based on information about the user and browser.

I hope that helps explain, but if you have any questions, just let me know.

Thanks,
Alex
