Changing default site language
Permalink
I first installed a new site with English language. But I would like to change the default language of the site to Finnish because for example pagination interfaces are in English.
Where could I change this?
I tried looking into site's default language which I changed to Finnish and also Multilingual settings. Problem seems to be that the main sitemap tree has English as the language and locale but I can't where I could change this.
Site only has content in one language.

I submittedhttps://github.com/concrete5/concrete5/pull/5866... to fix this exact problem
So it seems that currently there is no way to change the default home-tree language? During installation I choose English, because it's easier for Development - but ultimately the entire site needs to be in Dutch, including translation of form labels etc.
Does anyone know of a temporary fix?

No easy temporary fix: you have to wait for concrete5 version 8.3 (you can try the release candidate).
A colleague of mine has the following temporary solution that only works for developers (not for editors who only work with the WYSIWYG dashboard):
Copy the file concrete/elements/form/bootstrap3.php to new folder application/elements/form/bootstrap3.php and adjust the Required text there for labels. And outputs of Form fields can also be overridden. This can be done by copying concrete/attributes/ folder to new forlders in application/attributes and override them.
Another solution for me was to do a complete clean install of C5 (and pick the correct language BEFORE installing the core) and start from a completely clean database,
which worked because we didn't have much content yet.

You could patch your current core with the files in the pull on github. I have done so for an 8.2.1 site and it worked. No guarantees it would work as a patch on older cores because it could be out of step with other changes.
