Language settings

Default language
This sets the default language for the site. This setting can be overridden by users using the language menu or the setting in their personal profile.
Note: If a preferred language is set in your browser then this will override the default site language.
This sets whether the language menu is displayed on the login page and the home page. If this is turned off, the only places where a user can change the language setting is in their user profile or in the course settings if they are a teacher.
If you want to limit the number of languages students and teachers can select from, enter a reduced list here.
Sitewide locale
It's generally best to leave this setting empty, as it's set through each language pack.
Excel encoding
Leave as default (Unicode) unless you have a particular reason for wanting Latin encoding.
