By the way, this is my second mail because I forgot to give an icon to the first mail, and when I hit Back to do so, my text was erased. Bug or normal obnoxious attitude of my browser ? Thanks in advance Philippe  ELOG comes "internationalised": you just need to set your desired language in the configuration files. Language = french in the configuration file elogd.cfg does the trick. If you are capable to read the English language (which I suppose ), then I would recommend reading the manual, e.g. https://midas.psi.ch/elog/config.html#global Afrikaans Albanian Arabic Armenian Azerbaijani Basque Belarusian Bulgarian Catalan Chinese (Simplified) Chinese (Traditional) Croatian Czech Danish Detect language Dutch English Estonian Filipino Finnish French Galician Georgian German Greek Haitian Creole Hebrew Hindi Hungarian Icelandic Indonesian Irish Italian Japanese Korean Latin Latvian Lithuanian Macedonian Malay Maltese Norwegian Persian Polish Portuguese Romanian Russian Serbian Slovak Slovenian Spanish Swahili Swedish Thai Turkish Ukrainian Urdu Vietnamese Welsh Yiddish ⇄ Afrikaans Albanian Arabic Armenian Azerbaijani Basque Belarusian Bulgarian Catalan Chinese (Simplified) Chinese (Traditional) Croatian Czech Danish Dutch English Estonian Filipino Finnish French Galician Georgian German Greek Haitian Creole Hebrew Hindi Hungarian Icelandic Indonesian Irish Italian Japanese Korean Latin Latvian Lithuanian Macedonian Malay Maltese Norwegian Persian Polish Portuguese Romanian Russian Serbian Slovak Slovenian Spanish Swahili Swedish Thai Turkish Ukrainian Urdu Vietnamese Welsh Yiddish Detect language » English   PS: I happened to have the same problem (text erased after "back") when I had javascript disabled in the browser. If you have it enabled, you'll get a popup window that tells you what mandatory fields are missing in your post. Then you'll not need to use the back button.  Hi, Thanks for the answer. I tried this (directly from de setting menu in the demo account as well as from the onfig file) : I modified of course the text that could be modified directly from there such as menus and submenus. I added Language = french, I restarted the server, clear the cache of firefox (IE as well), but list, new and so on appear in english even they are in the locale file... Indeed, the manual is very interesting concerning javascript, it is activated ... Thanks again Philippe  Found it !   I wanted to have locale set in the folder demo (so I could have one in french and one in english). Once language set in globals everything went fine. Almost... Philippe

 May I make a suggestion here?  Something I do for other reasons.  I run two separate elog daemons, each with their own configuration files.  In this case you could have one configuration file tout en française, and the other in English.  This gets around the language setting being in the Global section of the configuration file elog.cfg

Of course this needs a little planning, for example a small script/batch file to start up each daemon with the correct config file. - so on my linux system, I start one with

/usr/local/sbin/elogd -p 8080 -c /home/logbooks/elogd0.cfg -d /home/logbooks

and the other with

/usr/local/sbin/elogd -p 8081 -c /home/logbooks/elogd1.cfg -d /home/logbooks

 

The disadvantage is that you cannot click between French and English by the tabs along the top of the elog page, you'd have to switch between browser windows.

Hope this helps.
