 ===== Switching Languages =====
-==== Zotero for Firefox ====
+==== Zotero ====
-By default, the user interface (UI) of Zotero (the labels of menu items, tabs, etc.) is displayed in the same language as Firefox. For example, if you download and install the French version of Firefox, your Zotero UI will automatically appear in French. If translations for a language are not available, Zotero's UI will default to US English.
+In Zotero, the interface language defaults to matching the operating system's language. To use a different language, go to the Edit menu (Windows/Linux) or Zotero menu (Mac) and select Preferences, click on the Advanced tab, and make your selection from the Language drop-down.
-To change the language of the Zotero UI, you can either use the Quick Locale Switcher Firefox add-on (see below), or follow these instructions:
-  * Type ''about:config'' into the Firefox address bar and press Enter. Dismiss the "This might void your warranty!" warning.
-  * Type "useragent" in the Filter text box. Now double-click the ''general.useragent.locale'' preference (or right-click the preference and select Modify), and enter the desired language code (e.g. "en-US" for US English). See the  [[https://github.com/zotero/zotero/blob/4.0/chrome.manifest|chrome manifest]] for all available codes.
-  * Restart Firefox.
-Changing the value of general.useragent.locale also affects the Firefox UI, Firefox add-ons, and websites that adapt their content based on the Firefox locale.
-If changing ''general.useragent.locale'' and restarting Firefox has no effect, make sure ''intl.locale.matchOS'' is set to ''false''.
-=== Quick Locale Switcher ===
-The [[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/quick-locale-switcher/|Quick Locale Switcher]] Firefox add-on makes it easier to change the value of general.useragent.locale. After installation of the add-on (and restarting Firefox), go to the Quick Locale Switcher Options window, and check the "User Interface Language (general.useragent.locale preference)" checkbox. You can now use the popup menu of the Quick Locale Switcher to switch the Firefox locale (although you still have to restart Firefox after changing the locale). If it has no effect, you may need to change the ''intl.locale.matchOS'' preference (see above).
-==== Zotero Standalone ====
-In Zotero Standalone, the interface language defaults to matching the operating system's language. To override this and use English instead of the operating system's language, open Preferences->Advanced->Open about:config), and set ''intl.locale.matchOS'' to false. To choose a language other than English, search for ''general.useragent.locale'' and change it to the appropriate [[https://github.com/zotero/zotero/blob/4.0/chrome.manifest|language code]] (e.g., ''fr-FR'' for French). Once you've made the necessary changes, restart Zotero.
