Can anyone please help me to figure out how I can change the default language for OpenEMS UI? I have tried to change the language of the admin user during local testing on my PC, but it seems to be reset (set back to german) on the next run.
I am running the UI connected to an edge instance.
I’m approaching to OpenEMS for personal interest.
It is very usefull and I want to go in deep with this platform.
Thanks to this thread I was able to change language from DE to EN.
Now I’m thinking to add italian language module. Is it possible?
Which way to do this? If anyone explain how to, I’m ready to implement it and give my contribute to the community with a new language module.
Hello thank you @p.wimmer for support. I’m contributing with a new language (italian) to the platform thanks to your advice.
I followed the steps above of @venu-sagar but I was unable to change the language.
I set as DEFAULT Language.EN but web I connect to localhost it show me german language again…is there a step by step guide to do that? and also to cusomize the graphic and logo of the appliance for my coop?
the user has also a language and by default this language will be used.
localStorage.LANGUAGE = language.key;
so you should deactivate this.
No there are no stepbystep guides, because this project is tooo huge for so many stepToStep guides.
I don’t know what you mean by customize “graphicc”?! you mean the circle? sure. feel free if you can do this. the logo is quite easy. just exchange it in themes folder, or use the “theming” itself.
best regards
Paul
Thank you Paul. I think we are having a language barrier. Please try a different way of explaining. Do you mean comment it out? Set it to 0 or maybe false? Delete it?
I’m sure it’s obvious but we are missing the point
I tested this myself locally and yes - there is unfortunately a mixture of “trying to be smart” and different places with currently hard-coded “default to German” language/locale settings.
In UI there is a default setting for the language:
This is primarly used, when there is no other source to get the actual language from, i.e. from
