We create courses for the public sector and have faced the same issue with the language in Rise. We have to change the language tag manually every time. It is mandatory to fulfill the accessibility criteria in EU, so I am adding my vote for this error to be corrected asap. Thank you.

Hi HanneJacobsen-7,

Quick clarification to my earlier reply here.

We released a fix that resolves an issue where the HTML language attribute stayed set to en after translating a Rise course. When authors translate their course using XLIFF, including translating both the course content and labels, the correct page language is now set in the published output, as long as a supported ISO language code is used.

That said, there are still limitations. If only custom labels are used (without full XLIFF translation), there isn’t currently a way to customize the HTML language attribute. We recognize how important this is for accessibility compliance, and feedback like this continues to be shared with our product team.

Thanks for raising this and for your patience as we keep improving this area.
