How to force content creation language in BO?

Hi Nicolas,

This is a typical issue for mono language site not in eng-GB and I'm afraid there's no easy solution currently.

The cleanest solution is probably to remove the eng-GB language through /content/translations in the admin interface. But if I remember correctly, to be able to do this, you have to translate all existing objects and classes in fre-FR and then remove the eng-GB versions for each... On an existing project this can be quite long but I think it should be feasible through a script if you consider that not yet translated objects/classes should be the same in fre-FR.

Cheers

@Damien thanks, i was afraid of this answer (i've seen the 'eng-GB' hardcoded somewhere :-s). Think i should'nt have created the french language, it would have been simplier. Anyway, that's a new website, i might restart the install ^^'

@Thiago that's a solution, but i don't like overriding BO functions, specially "the create here" drop down (which has discutions about usability if i remeber correctly).

Anyway, i have my answer, thanks! :-)

eng-GB is not "hardcoded" in eZ. It's just that the default content classes are all created in english, and you have to de-translate them before english can be deactivated. Starting with a very empty content setup is your best bet (get no demo content from packages or start the db using the sql provided with sources instead of using the setup wizard)
