    Is it possible to have different language in Admin CP?

    Is there a way to have one language on front end and other language in Admin CP?

    My forum is in Swedish but i would like to use the Admin CP in English, makes the my admin work alot faster.

    You don't have to translate the backend phrases. You could also use a seperate user account for the admincp.

      Well i uploaded a language pack so i guess both frontend and admin are translated.

      But what do you mean if i use separate account for CP?
      Can i set different language settings for each admin account?

        Yes, it's a per user setting in User CP > Edit Options > Forum Language.

          Sorry in front end, i do not have any language options.
          Via Admin CP i can see a Language option under Profile, but only two options:
          1. Använd forumets standard (Use forum default)
          2. Svenska (Swedish)

          I do have English and Swedish pack installed with Swedish as default.

          There most be a way to use the Admin CP in English...

            Only if the admincp phrases are untranslated.

              I disagree. I have a language pack with some translated phrases which is the default for my users. But logged in as administrator I can set my language to English and see a fully English Admin CP.

              I don't know why ForumUzer can't choose English as his language. Maybe something went wrong when installing the language packs.
