Language & Charset settings - not able to set language

[gosforth]

Sorry I post new topic but I cannot soleve this. I try to set another language so, I choose it from the list in 'Language & Charset settings' (config pane), I click on 'save new configuration' and.... I still have the old language (on the list in 'Language & Charset settings' there is the previous one not the desired one).

I'm doing something wrong?

Access your config page with the language you want to switch to preselected by adding the corresponding parameter into your URL, using the scheme lang=your_language_name.
Example: if your coppermine gallery is located at http://mysite.tld/my_coppermine_folder/ and you want to select "dutch" as default language, then go to http://mysite.tld/my_coppermine_folder/admin.php?lang=dutch, then select "Dutch" once more from the dropdown field in config and finally save your changes. Keep in mind though that the default language will only be taken into account if the language preferences set up in the users browser don't override it - sort of an ultimate fallback. In fact, coppermine determines the language in a three-step-process. This has been asked and answered before in detail, so I suggest searching the board for a detailed answer. See http://coppermine-gallery.net/demo/cpg14x/custom_language.php and http://documentation.coppermine-gallery.net/languages.htm#how as well.
