Default language

An Organization may only have one default language. The default language is used across the CMS for usability purposes. It is used to indicate the default language of the content of an Organization and is therefore placed as first language in every language tab or selection when creating, adding and managing assets and content.

It is however not required to create a translation of the default language for every content item. It is possible to create unique content items for specific languages, without having to create a translation of that content item for the default language.

Deleting a language

To delete a language simply click on the Delete button ( 🗑️ ) in the Language settings of the Organization, in front of the language item.

When deleting a language a confirmation will popup in which the action needs to be confirmed in order to permanently delete the language.

• Also remove assets and content - Tick this checkbox in order to delete all Assets and Content which are only available for this language. Leaving this unchecked will keep Assets and Content available, even when the language has been deleted.

• Cancel - Click this button to cancel this action, the language will not be deleted.

• Confirm - Click this button to confirm the action, the language will now be permanently deleted. It is however possible to add the language again to the Organization.
