Pamela Galli Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 I did a search but did not see any answer -- everything on SL websites is in English but suddenly the marketplace is in French. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danika Braveheart Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 All of a sudden this afternoon my marketplace page was in german. How to fix this is to look in the top left hand corner of your mp page under languages and select the correct language. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polenth Yue Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 I had it suddenly switch language too, which happened after someone bought something using that language. That's also how I found out that it had archived my old English descriptions in some of the other language tabs (which ones and which bits depending on the age of the product). So that's a thing to check if you've updated your titles or descriptions since listing the product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Dakota Linden Posted May 20, 2019 Moderators Share Posted May 20, 2019 Greetings all! If you click a link to a Marketplace listing that is in one of the alternate languages, it can flip your setting to the language from the link. Clicking on the World Map at the top let of the Marketplace web page will allow you to change your setting back to your preferred language. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dakota, that's what happened for some people, myself included, but that isn't the issue. The issue is that (funny enough, I had it again just 5 minutes ago), even without clicking such a link, sometimes AFTER switching your language back to English it suddenly flips back to, in my case Japanese. Out of nowhere, when having MP open in English and then clicking an English link to a product, it opens that product page but flips to Japanese. I checked the links of some before clicking and they were designated with the /eng-en part in the link. And yet, after clicking then, they opened in Japanese... 🙂 Guess it's time for me to learn Japanese now! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Dakota Linden Posted May 21, 2019 Moderators Share Posted May 21, 2019 HI Mikey Shu! If it keeps happening, try clearing your browsers Cookie files for SL. I know that phrase has become some kind of fall back excuse for issues, but the MKT sets the cookie with your settings for the MKT, and that could be why it flips back to another language. You shouldn't need to delete ALL cookies, just the ones for Second Life or the Marketplace. The Chrome browser has an awesome feature where you can Inspect the web page and directly delete any cookies that are set for that web site/page directly without mucking about with other site cookies, etc. Not sure if other browsers offer the same, or similar, options, but might be worth checking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heads-up that Safari (on Mac) and Vivaldi (All platforms) do this also. Vivaldi uses Chrome engine without the Google spyware for anyone concerned about that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was actually the first thing I did after it began happening. I cleared my entire browsere history (well that was about time to do again anyway), including all Cookies. I still have that problem occasionally... 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nathaniel Pevensey Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 Thank you Arwen- I'd gotten it set to German somehow, didn't realize that the drop-down at top-left existed! Looked- and hey, it said 'Sprech'. My severely limited German told me that was what you meant, and I can see Marketplace in English again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
