Defining Fallback Language

Define the so-called fallback language. The fallback language is used when a text does not exist in the customer-specific language. The fallback language is always one of the default languages and, ideally, also a source language. The preset is the default language English (United States).

You have added at least one customer-specific language. For more information, see Adding Customer-Specific Language.

  1. Navigate to the > Administration > Overview > Look & Feel > UI Languages page.

  2. Click the Customize button in the Your Custom Languages area for the language for which you want to define the fallback language.

    The Your language dialog box opens:

  3. If the default fallback language of English (United States) does not match, click Change fallback language ❶.

    The Select fallback language dialog box opens.

  4. Select a different default language as the fallback language from the drop-down list.

  5. Click OK.

    The Your language dialog box opens again.

  6. Click the ✕ in the upper right corner.

    The dialog box closes.

You have changed the fallback language.

In the next step, download the source language. For more information, see Downloading the Source Language.
