Problem with default language

[ubay25]

Hi Nick,

Just having some problem with the language, I have entered "en_GB" at the config file as the default language and also tweaked the login screen to not show the language selection, see below (excerpt from your other post):

Sure, just change line 240-254 in lib/CmnFns.class.php to this:

Code:
function print_language_pulldown() {
?>
<input type="hidden" name="language" value="en_GB"/>
<?php
}

Now when I tried going to the booking system on a computer that I haven't used before to access the booking system, the default language is "en_US" and not "en_GB". I notice it because the date format is mm/dd/yyyy instead of dd/mm/yyyy.

Please help, thanks in advance!!!

This is the code trying to guess the language from the browser.  Try removing lines 91-93 of config/lang.php

Hi Nick,

Tried your suggestion but it doesn't work perfectly, it works on one computer but it doesn't on another.
Just an idea, since no one here will use the en-US, what if I copy all the content of the en_GB and paste it on the en_US overwriting all its content. Do you think that will be ok or will create an effect that would mess up the system?

That would work, but before trying that, try this on a browser that has never hit the phpScheduleIt login page.  I'm thinking a cookie is being read from that 2nd browser.

Yep you're absolutely right, I tried it on a computer that has never accessed it before and it worked ok. I also cleared the cache and cookies of the browsers of the other computers and they all got the right language now.
Brilliant! Thanks a lot Nick, you've done it again!!!

couldn't you just change the language preferences in your browser. that's what i did and it works nicely.
