Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1: View Available Languages
You will see a list of all configured languages with their status (active/inactive) and default setting.
Step 2: Add a New Language
Click the Add Language button. Select the language from the dropdown and enter the language code (e.g., en, it, es).
Step 3: Set Default Language
To set a language as the default, click the Set as Default button next to the language. Only one language can be the default.
Step 4: Activate or Deactivate Languages
Toggle the active status to show or hide languages from the user selection. Deactivated languages are not visible to users.

- Language Code - ISO 639-1 code (e.g., en, fr, de)
- Status - Active or inactive
- Is Default - Primary language for the platform
- RTL Support - Enable for right-to-left languages
