Loomio

Language settings for anonymous users

An important part of attracting new users to the Loomio group is the simplicity of the interface. Which depends on the interface language.

Now, when the requirements for translation are so high, looks reasonable to set an interface language for an anonymous user.

I do not know how to do it easier / clearer. I see such options:
- use user's browser language settings
- the feature to change the language manually in the footer
- the feature to set the primary language for the group
- the feature to send a link to the group/topic with the language in it

@eduardk I'm not sure what you mean. Loomio will detect a user's language from their browser, and they can change what language Loomio uses from their preferences page.

Invitations are sent in the author's language.

It might be a good idea to confirm language when people create their account.
