Hi Jan, >From what I can tell from looking at the code is that the language for the >email messages sent out is based on three possible values: - What language the Mahara site is set to - What language the Institution is set to - What language the user has as their language preference
When a user is added to an institution the code first checks what the institution's language is set to and if it set to 'site default' then it will be based on what the site's language is set to. So what is missing from this scenario is the user's language preference, if set, is being ignored. I've added a patch for review to deal with this situation https://reviews.mahara.org/#/c/5970/ Cheers Robert I've added a patch to make that the first choice of what language the email is sent in. ** Changed in: mahara Milestone: None => 16.04.0 ** Changed in: mahara Assignee: (unassigned) => Robert Lyon (robertl-9) ** Changed in: mahara Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: mahara Status: New => In Progress ** Changed in: mahara Importance: Medium => High -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mahara Contributors, which is subscribed to Mahara.

Example: Admin's language is English, user's language is German. Admin adds the user to an institution by selecting him/her from either the "Users who have requested membership" list or the "Non-members" list and clicking on "Add members". User receives the notification in English: "Institution membership confirmation You have been added as a member of Test Institution." When the admin's language is changed, the notification in sent in the respective language. The notification must be in the recipient's language, regardless of the admin's or staff's language.
