The core framework definitely supports auto-switching, If a supported language is found, and ofbiz does support a lot of languages out of the box.
However, previously I only checked the back-end apps (http://demo-old-ofbiz.apache.org/example/control/main) which did switch language, but you are right, the ecommerce demo component is NOT switching on the demo trunks currently (13.07 or 12.04) based off of browser language. There is a setting here: http://demo-stable-ofbiz.apache.org/catalog/control/EditProductStore?productStoreId=9000 Under Localization, there is a default locale which on the demo trunk is set to en_US. This will default to that language for all browsers. I just checked, if you clear this setting, then it will defer to the browser language setting to get the behavior you want. On demo-trunk site right now, admin is locked out but flexadmin/ofbiz works. --P ---------- Paul Mandeltort, Marco Specialties, Inc. +1(512)394-8119 [email protected] > On Feb 3, 2016, at 10:15 AM, Heidi Dehaes - Olagos <[email protected]> > wrote: > > Hello Paul, > > > > Is if I understand your explanation well, the language in ofbiz is > automatically adapted to the standard language of the browser? > > I tried it also but see nothing change if i change the language for > example in FireFox or Internet Explorer to German. > > However Ofbiz remains in the last choosen language in Ofbiz. > > Eric > > Olagos bvba > Heidi Dehaes > Kerkstraat 34 > 2570 Duffel > Belgium > Tel. : 015/31 53 04 > GSM : 0485/22 35 80 > E-mail : [email protected] > http://www.olagos.eu > http://www.olagos.com > http://www.olagos.be > http://www.olagos.nl > > > > 2016-02-03 16:28 GMT+01:00 Paul Mandeltort <[email protected]>: > >> Remember the browser sends the final language requests to ofbiz and has >> language settings which are set independently from the OS, but depending on >> the browser are likely inherited from the OS upon initial setup.
