Changing Opal's Locale¶

Since Opal 0.6.0, Internationalization (I18n) Support has been a part of Opal. You can change Opal's locale, or users can specify their own locale if they don't speak your language. Here's how to do it:

Changing Opal's Locale (System-Wide)¶

Opal's default locale is en(english - US). To change the system-wide locale for Opal, go to Admininistration -> Configure -> Public Tab. You'll see a setting called Locale and there will be a dropdown box with locales you can choose from.

Changing Individual User Locale¶

If you're an Opal User, you can change your locale by going to My Account -> My Settings. There will be a dropdown box called Locale in the Details Section.

Set Locale through URL¶

If you want to temporarily view a page in a different locale, or if you want set the locale in the url, set the locale GET parameter like so:

http://localhost/?locale=ru

Don't see your locale?¶

If you don't see your locale or language in Opal, it's easy to make your own locale. Check out this guide for more information:
