Should Default to Native Language #40

Open fiskr opened 7 years ago

When you go to the index.html page, it should either redirect you to your native language's board, or the user should have to choose which language's zite to go to.

Not sure if its a good idea, since the language specific forums has much less activity.

Perhaps why they have less activity is that everyone is dumped into the English board. This wouldn't prevent them from selecting an English forum. If it should be one, shared board, perhaps what should happen is the removal of the language specific forums - if you truly want the activity in one place. As it is now, it's frustrating - the Chinese activity in the English board feels out of place.

It's definitely a good idea to have translated webpages, but in this case translation makes things confusing.

As a request, instead of redirecting, I think the moderator should be able to define a language that his or her forum will display. ZeroTalk Main forum should display the English interface no matter what language the client speaks.
