Hi guys. Is there a plan to allow Users / Access to select language? Or is there a place to contribute? Thanks. DS

No. It is shaded out in the User config

I was not talking about user config at all. After you have logged in, go to Lobby - Password.

OK thanks. It can be set by logging in as the User and changing the language. I am happy to submit code to allow changes to that in the User configuration if someone isnt working on it already.

Just issue a PR on github.

BTW: Great entry, where can I un-applaud?   ::)

I don't mind a PR, but a FR in reality is not something we're going to look at in the moment.

1. Most users don't have access to the users page to change their (or everybody else's) language there. This is the first time in years that anyone dared.

2. We're going to wrap the whole thing in MVC/API fluff for 25.1 as that is on the roadmap (sneak peek) where this would likely happen anyway.

3. Personally I don't think it's very helpful to change someone else's language there especially since they can do it too and it generally follows the system's language. Maybe I'm missing a use case here...


Cheers,
Franco
