I would like to allow the user to select the language that they want to use for the site (as I have more than a single language installed), but am not seeing it as an option in the custom fields, am I missing something?

Thank in advance,
Chaim
Hello CK,

I am sorry but unfortunately we don't actually have such options currently Wouldn't it be extremely tedious for your users to enter multiple information for different languages?

Mark,

I will clarify my question, I want the user to select what front-end display language the site should be (for example should the display laungue be in en-us, or en-GB). Generally the option is available from the account page, but as we are using ES to manage our site, I don't want to confuse the user with 2 options/locations to edit their account settings).

My apologies in advance if I mistyped anything, as I am resonding via my mobile phone.

Does anyone have some clarification how users can change their front end display language?

Hello,

Hm, perhaps it would be idea if we create a custom field for language selection. I will add this as a feature request for 1.2 and hopefully we'll be able to push this in before the stable release is available.

Just a heads up that (at least in my dev site) the language strings for the filed are missing.
PLG_FIELDS_JOOMLA_LANGUAGE_DEFAULT_TITLE

PLG_FIELDS_USER_JOOMLA_LANGUAGE_DEFAULT_DESCRIPTION
