Language FAQ
From MoodleDocs
Where can I set the default language for the site?
Site Administration > Language > Language settings
How can I change a word or phrase used in Moodle 2.0?
Use Site Administration > Language > Language customization.
- See the Language customization page for more details or a quick set of instructions
Why are my changes not saved if I edit a language pack with the Moodle language pack editor?
This could be caused by a PHP accelerator. Try switching it off (usually in php.ini).
I've set a default site language but when I log in it switches to English. Why?
By default, Moodle detects a user's language from their browser setting. This language auto-detection may be disabled so that the default site language is used instead in Site administration > Language > Language settings.
How can I provide course content in more than one language?
Labels, web pages, activity descriptions etc. may be provided in more than one language using the Multi language content filter.
