Hi everyone,

 

I'd like my shop to show pages in English only (no multi-language options are displayed), however when I typed my shop's URL while visiting in Germany it was showing in German only.

How do I make sure the shop shows in English, no matter what country it is visited from?

 

Many thanks,

Lana

I did it this way

If I suggest you edit any file(s) make a backup first - I'm not perfect and neither are you.

I just removed all other languages from the Admin -> Localization -> Languages, after making sure that English was the default. The deleted the other languages directories, and other_languages.php files.

 

If no other language is installed then no other language can be displayed.

it worked, thanks guys!

 

I just went into admin clicked on localization then languages then edit language then crossed out/left blank the box that says directory. Seems to work, well has done for the last year or so. Then all you have to do is put back the dierctory name if you need it. I have done this because I have French and English on the site and its enough to get these two languages correct. The other languages are still there and can be worked on until things are right. Mind you I do have 3 os shops 1 to play on and check everything works. 1 which stays near virgin and 1 which is really live and only gets changed after checking and checking on the other two.
