Some browsers do not use the default language

[tflaat]

I have Norwegian as default language. I have noticed that when I use Internet Explorer11 on my job and home computer the language is switched to English. When i use Google Crome and Firefox on the same computer I get Norwegian language. Same with Safari on iOS devices.

I have tried to turn off Autodetect language, but it does not help. Any idea what to do? I want it to always use Norwegian.

All that probably means is a cookie has been set on your IE. You can clear the cookie by adding ?lang=xxx To the end of your url. It is outlined in the docs but it is hard to paste a link from my phone so please search the docs for yourself.

Yes, ?lang=norwegian solved the problem :-)

Thank you!

However, that means that the autodetect language option does not work. Or it is not possible to switch it off.

Please try to delete Coppermine's "data" cookie in your Internet Explorer and try again. Alternatively, add

Code Select Expand

?lang=xxx
to the end of your url, to reset any user defined language settings in your browser.

A value in a valid cookie overrides the autodetect... Presumably because you previously requested a specific language...
A user with no language defined in cookie will auto detect if option is on, or use config set default language if option is off.
