It seems to me that you all answered to Jenni's question, not mine :)

She spoke about "the start page of the admin pages." I don't know what it is exactly, because, from the site page by default demos get to the catalogue main page!

So let me rephrase it. I don't want to change OFBiz OOTB for that. For me it's OK as is. What I want is a mean to allow demos user to easily switch to a language readable for them. And we suppose English is readable for all users.

Nicolas suggested

<<we can force admin on English>>

That's would be perfect. We have already these parameters on the demos links:

main?USERNAME=admin&PASSWORD=ofbiz&JavaScriptEnabled=Y

So we would like something as simple as

main?USERNAME=admin&PASSWORD=ofbiz&JavaScriptEnabled=Y&newLocale=en

Which of course does not work currently (needs setSessionLocale?newLocale=en)

See? If we agree on the principle we could create a Jira and set it

Thanks

Jacques

Introduce more actors (accounts could be the most simple solution) with
preferences defined in demo data, eg:
admin-CS - Chinese
admin-FR - French

And just do the top 5 (country-wise) from the overview of our adopters. And
if any more are needed, just let the contributors for the additional
countries provide patches to the demo data set.

Hi,

Jenni, from ilscipio, suggested that <<we might want to add a big button:
"switch language to" on the start page of the admin pages. It is currently
Chinese and I would have no idea where to switch the settings>>

Currently when you get to the demos through the official links from
http://ofbiz.apache.org/ you arrive on the main catalogue page, already
logged in.
So, for most of us, you indeed can't read the logout link at top right (or
bottom right depending on theme) if it's in a non occidental language, like
Chinese, Arab, you name it...

Any ideas how we could handle that? I though about adding language links
in the site main page for the stable and old demos, but that would not work
for the trunk. Another possibility is to handle it in OFBiz itself, but I
don't like much this idea: you would need to maintain a list of non
occidental languages and it's does not make much sense in an enterprise day
to day business.

Thanks for your ideas

Jacques
