Impossible to change the language of the UI #632

Closed mgautierfr closed 10 months ago

When going to https://library.kiwix.org, the UI is in french (because my browser is configured to french). If I go to the "language" button (on top rigth) and select english. The page is reloaded but the UI is still in french.

Even when going in the developer view and changing the cookie userlang to en, when reloading the page, UI is in french.

This is due to our removal of cookies from kiwix-serve response in varnish configuration. We need to figure out https://github.com/kiwix/libkiwix/issues/995 first.

This has been solved but at the expense of removing caching. Closing as the rest will be followed up on libkiwix
