Hi,

When I started with JIRA my board, issues, interface etc. where in English. But now after a few weeks my the whole interface turned into Dutch. Can I change this somewhere? The default setting in the global configuration is English even as the default setting.

In my own profile I tried to change the language into English, but it didn't work.

Can someone help me? 

Thanks!

Hi Rosa,

There are a couple places you can check:

If other people login and their interface is in English but yours is in Dutch check your profile and change the language there.  If the change is universal:

In Cloud:

  1. Choose Settings > System in the Jira sidebar
  2. Choose Edit Settings
  3. Select your Default language and choose Update

In Server:

  1. Choose > System
  2. Select General Configuration to open the Administration page. 
  3. Click the 'Edit Settings' button, then select the appropriate language in the drop-down box next to 'Default language'.
    Any additional languages you have installed will appear in the list. See Translating JIRA.

Let us know if that helps.

Cheers,

Branden

Hi Branden,

Thanks for you options. I found the problem in my profile. Jira detects automatically my browser settings which is Dutch.

This feature is currently in development, so I can't change my prefences into Dutch. For now  I changed my browser settings in English instead of Dutch, so my Jira is now in English.

So hopefully is this future soon editable. But thanks for you help!
