Adam, thanks for quick reply.
Your solution works great when I have only one language, but my project
have three languages! I've already implemented changing UI language from
dropdown menu 'Languages' and that works great, but I want to change
concepts labels in dropdown lists and report also.
I'll wait for Aleksei if he has some further advice about that.
I've also checked the code for importing concepts from authority files
(authority_files.py) and I am afraid that all labels imports only for one
language (settings.LANGUAGE_CODE). I hope there is another way to import
concept labels in multiple languages.
Best, Bojan
