Switching between languages in the LMS
Hi everyone, how are you?
I used the "Localization" feature in a course.
After making the content available, when selecting a language I can't revert to the original language. What am I doing wrong?
Choice of language
After this, it is no longer possible to change the language.
Thank you in advance.

Hi Jilmar, that is currently the expected behavior because Rise saves the learner’s language choice in the LMS, so when they relaunch the course, that language information is preserved and doesn't prompt them to select it again.
To switch back to the original course language, you would need to reset/clear the learner’s course attempt/progress in the LMS.
If you would like, I can submit a feature request to change the language on your behalf.
Hi GingerSwart! Thank's for the clarification. In this case, I would definitely like you to submit the feature request on my behalf. Having the flexibility to switch languages without resetting the learner's progress would be a great improvement for our user experience. Thanks for your help!
I'll get that submitted for you Jilmar!
GingerSwart Thank you so much for the excellent support. I'll be waiting.
Hi GingerSwart! Is there any update on this or has anyone developed a workaround where the learner can opt in to changing their language once they've chosen it? Currently the only option is to unassign and reassign in the LMS.
Alternatively, I would like to propose that Rise automatically selects from the drop-down list the user's browser language, with the option to select something different. This would save us a lot of headache from errant clicks by users that we then cannot let them self-fix becausee the course doesn't give them that option.
