Resolved m0n0mind

Dear Pascal,

I found this old topic that basically sums it up:
https://wordpress.org/support/topic/not-working-for-wpamlia-and-borlabs-cache/

Even with most recent versions of WP, Preferred Languages and Borlabs Cookie the issue persists.
I added German (formal) + German (informal) as site languages but Borlabs Cookie still seems to think the main site language is English.

Disabling your plugin is the only remedy afaik in order to make Borlabs work as expected.
But as Borlabs saves all the settings based on the current language, one needs to reconfigure all plugin settings again.

Regards,
Daniel

Screenshot B: https://share.cleanshot.com/lGCSbkWG Value of WPLANG in the options-table.

Screenshot C: https://share.cleanshot.com/CxGpCZtN After your plugin has been installed, and the languages have been added and saved.

Screenshot D: https://share.cleanshot.com/2LHD7Qg2 The value of WPLANG is removed by your plugin.

Hi Pascal,

I’ll sent you a user login for a DEV site that shows this behaviour if you like. If so, tell me where to send it to.

I dug a little deeper and I think your plugin is not removing the WPLANG value of the option, but is still responsible for removing it. I think it’s somehow related to the replaced <select> field on the WordPress settings page.

Hmm are you fetching that value using direct database queries? You will notice that calling get_option( 'WPLANG' ) will still return de_DE_formal as the value, so there shouldn’t be any breakage.

But if you do direct queries or circumvent any filters that’s another story… In that case I can look into always persisting that value, no matter what.

Hey guys,

just found that with most recent versions (WP + your plugins) this issue still didn’t seem to be resolved.
But I found a little workaround (for existings sites being updated):
1. Disable “Preferred Languages” temporarily
2. Switch site default language back to intended language (German Formal here)
3. Re-enable “Preferred languages” (old settings should be restored)
That seems to do the trick in order for Borlabs Cookie 3.x find the correct default site language.

You might have seen that there hasn’t been a new release of the plugin yet, that’s why.

The Borlabs plugin does some weird stuff, so the next Preferred Languages release will contain a workaround.

We don’t do weird stuff…we simply make our plugin compatible to the most used multilingual plugins WPML, Polylang and TranslatePress.
