AI-generated summary

The user stephtara reports that after updating Discourse, the interface is in English despite the default locale being set to French. Moin notes that the site appears in French and asks about the language setting in the user’s interface preferences. Lilly confirms the site is in French and suggests using incognito mode to verify. stephtara realizes the issue is likely with their user settings, as the interface is in English for them. stephtara then shares a screenshot showing their interface preferences, confirming the language is set to English, and humorously apologizes for the confusion. The discussion also mentions the site is in draft mode and the Facebook integration is due to community migration plans.

I just updated Discourse (for the first time! yay me!) and it seems to have worked :crossed_fingers: except that the interface is now English instead of French. Am I missing something? Here it is: https://discourse.diabetefelin.com

This looks like French.

Which language is selected in your interface preferences?

yes it is in french. in fact i tried to walk through the sign up and was going to post screenshots of it all so you could see that it was all in french, but unfortunately you’re doing this facebook requirement thing?

anyways. not to worry. using a test user or incognito mode would have verified that it was in french :slight_smile:

Oh. Eeps. It was English for me when I posted… and still is :-/
And of course I’m not certain it wasn’t already before (broken brain again this last month).
So probably it’s my user. Will post if I figure more out.

Oh, sorry about that, we’re still very much in draft mode, the foundations of the house aren’t even really in place! (Why the Facebook thing: because we’ll be starting out by migrating existing community members, see Migrating from Facebook: specific challenges, and some thoughts for context).
Thanks for checking it out!


Ah well, there we go.
My brain apologises and will go and rest a bit more before creating extra problems!
