set default content language?
Answered
Hi,
we have only german speaking users, so we configure everything "view names", columns, etc. only in german.
But we retrieve data from a system that distinguishes between en/de and without adding "german" as language in the region setting, we get the content in english.
As soon as I add "german" in the language settings, all content is returned in german from the source system.
I conclude that no language is given in the default or it is set to "en" regardless of the browser display. Wouldn't be so bad if the "additional" language "german" wouldn't unlock the translation function at the same time. This is not necessary in our case.
Can we influence this and set the default base language already to German?
;) Stefan

Hi Stefan Hall
Apologies for delay. There is no option to designate German as the default language. The only language available from the Yellowfin UI is English; however, if we want to choose German, we must go to the region settings and modify the language there.
The global language of a Yellowfin instance can be overridden in one way. through a modification to the configuration database. You should be aware that doing this will change all of the instance's client languages to the selected language. I would like to recommend you to go through the below article.
https://wiki.yellowfinbi.com/display/yfcurrent/Advanced+Configurations#AdvancedConfigurations-Enforceagloballanguage
So for Germany it would be
INSERT INTO Configuration VALUES (1, 'SYSTEM', 'OVERRIDE_LANGUAGE', 'de_DE');
Here, in the regional settings of the Yellowfin server, we must disable Multi-language deployment before inserting the query. I tested the above query in a local instance to see how it would change the entire language. After entering the query, kindly restart the yellowfin.
I have attached screenshots for your reference.
After entering the query the dashboard is changed to German language as you can see in my below screenshot.
Please let me know if there is anything else I can help you with.
