How do I make the set language in Jira be the one to be used?

Klas Färd April 8, 2019

In Jira, Personal settings I have selected "English, US", but still the UI is in Swedish.

MS Edge uses the OS language (Swedish), but I do NOT want the apps to use Swedish even if that is my language in general (and keyboard layout) - and there is a language setting in Jira -so how can I make Jira honor that setting ??

Hi @Klas Färd 

 

May be if you change your MS EDGE language to English Jira will be in english. I think it's a bug from jira.

You can get more informations here :

Hope this helps

Thanks @Mohamed Benziane : Unfortunately it seems like Edge takes the language from Windows, and I do not want to switch the whole OS just because I want Jira in English :/

But if it is a bug maybe Atlassian will fix it in an upcoming release ? :)

Can you try with Chrome or Firefox just to be sure that the issue it's from Jira.

 

TIA
