Title: R3DF Dashboard Language Switcher Author: Rick Radko Published: 10 april 2015 Last modified: 12 april 2015 --- Plugins zoeken ![](https://ps.w.org/r3df-dashboard-language-switcher/assets/banner-772x250.png? rev=1131724) Deze plugin **is niet getest met de laatste 3 grotere versies van WordPress**. Mogelijk wordt het niet meer onderhouden of ondersteund. Ook kunnen er compatibiliteitsproblemen ontstaan wanneer het wordt gebruikt met recentere versies van WordPress. ![](https://ps.w.org/r3df-dashboard-language-switcher/assets/icon-256x256.png?rev =1131722) # R3DF Dashboard Language Switcher Door [Rick Radko](https://profiles.wordpress.org/r3df/) [Download](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/r3df-dashboard-language-switcher.1.0.2.zip) * [Details](https://nl.wordpress.org/plugins/r3df-dashboard-language-switcher/#description) * [Beoordelingen](https://nl.wordpress.org/plugins/r3df-dashboard-language-switcher/#reviews) * [Installatie](https://nl.wordpress.org/plugins/r3df-dashboard-language-switcher/#installation) * [Ontwikkeling](https://nl.wordpress.org/plugins/r3df-dashboard-language-switcher/#developers) [Ondersteuning](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/r3df-dashboard-language-switcher/) ## Beschrijving This plugin allows logged in users to select the language they would like to use when viewing the WordPress dashboard. It works with multisite and single site installs of WordPress. #### The plugin offers several options for language settings: 1. WordPress admin toolbar switcher – user can easily switch language on admin pages. 2. logon screen switcher – user can specify his/her preferred language during logon. 3. user profile setting – user can choose a language in their user profile. #### Notes: * This plugin does NOT add languages to WordPress, you need to add them to use the switcher. (see below) * This plugin does NOT translate other plugins or themes, it manages the language setting for the WordPress site. (see below) * The admin toolbar switcher takes priority over the other options. If a language selection is made via the toolbar, it changes the user profile setting to the current language selection. * If enabled, the login switcher changes the user profile setting to requested language selection at login. #### Installing WordPress languages: To add languages to WordPress ( since 4.1 ), simply select a new language from the ones available on the “Site Language” setting on the “General Settings” page. When you save your settings, the new language will be added to the site. (and selected as the current language) #### Plugin and theme translations: It is up to plugin and theme authors to provide translations for their works. If you change the site language, and a plugin or theme is not translated (usually still showing English), you need to contact the authors of those works to get the needed translation files. There is a French translation of this plugin included. It was mostly a test of the translation of the plugin. It’s not a great translation, if you can improve it please let me know. ## Schermafbeeldingen [⌊The admin toolbar language selector.⌉⌊The admin toolbar language selector.⌉[ The admin toolbar language selector. ## Installatie #### The easy way: 1.

This plugin always worked in a somehow erratic way, but recently for some reason it stopped working at all. Luckily I found this one. Seeing it hasn't been updated in 2 years, I feared it wouldn't work either… but it does work and it does so flawlessly. In fact, it even shows the top toolbar in english (the customise/stats/etc. that appear when seeing the blog as admin). It has some extra options that I don't really need. It does what I need, and I'm really grateful for it because I don't understand WordPress options in other languages, but I must keep the blog in the users' language. Thanks!!! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/68799976d5c14915ce9fb8372be02762d3097e2dd11a3005d4695d5ba4ed8b2c? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Best Setting](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/best-setting/)󠁿 [VipoxOfni](https://profiles.wordpress.org/vipoxofni/) 30 september 2016 thank you best plugin for multinetwork wordpress ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/0903934d21ca7f50a9944efa9fc62abe1d6065bba1fdf7f1408de6b96f4b7886? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Works](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/works-967/)󠁿 [Peter Lemessanyi](https://profiles.wordpress.org/lemessanyi/) 3 september 2016 It was not updated for over a year, but it still works flawlessly (tested with CZECH, ENGLISH, SLOVAK). However the plugin itself has a typo in one freaking UI element it has, makes me question it a little. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/e45fb490f7a5f2543c446b649fc35056520736915413c7f0f96cdc28e5e0fd32? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Worked for me, life saver!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/worked-for-me-life-saver/)󠁿 [bg17aw](https://profiles.wordpress.org/bg17aw/) 3 september 2016 It did the job, just wished the author would be more responsive in the support forums.

However, I have taken off a star for the following: * Dashboard 'langauge' in the toolbar has a typo – should read 'language' * Can't see the point if 'Dashboard Language' isn't itself translated into the language that is selected. Just having it in French doesn't really cut it. A couple more because there are issues… [ Lees alle 9 beoordelingen ](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/r3df-dashboard-language-switcher/reviews/) ## Bijdragers & ontwikkelaars “R3DF Dashboard Language Switcher” is open source software.
