Feature #704
closedDefault language
0%
Description
Usually web applications, if localized, use language detected from browser.
The same should happen with Redmine.
Currently one can preselect language for guest users and each authenticated user can select a language for himself. The second possibility should of course be kept, however for guests user an option to "use browser language" would be highly desired.

Use the 'auto' value in the language drop-down and the language will be detected from the browser's settings.
That's how it works for this web site.

I have no such setting in my Redmine installation.

The 'auto' value can be selected on 'My account', not in application settings.
By default, this value is set for the anonymous user so that the language is detected from the browser's settings.
Could run this query on your database:
select language from users where type = 'AnonymousUser'
You should get a blank value.
