The forum has started speaking Dutch to me

[4eyesbetter]

At least, I think it's Dutch. But yeah, quite a lot of the forums-generated text (but not all) now thinks I'm Dutch - and enough of it has got munged that I can't just go into the control panel and see if an option's somehow ticked itself, because 3/4 of the options are all in Dutch.

Example here:

I would like to help, but it's all Dutch to me :biggrin:




I had a look in your user setting but can't see anything amiss.
Think Robbie might have to sort this one out.

Are you sure its not a setting in your browser?

Just wandered over to another forum I frequent which is on vBulletin 4.2.1 and everything's coming up roses. I come back here, it's coming up tulips!

 

[Phil E]

and everything's coming up roses. I come back here, it's coming up tulips!

I see what you did there.....very good.

By the way, can you stick your finger in this dyke!!

You haven't been visiting any errr .... "exotic" websites based in Amsterdam have you? :biggrin:

Everything working fine here in West Wales.

If it is indeed Dutch, try this...
Click on Gebruikersinstellingen at the top right of your screen
Click on Wijzig opties around the bottom left
On the Taal forum drop down menu at the full bottom of the page, select English.
And the Wijzugingen opslaan button...

If it doesn't help, you're f'ed and only Robbie can save you... Maybe ;-)

------ Edit ------
If you wonder why I posted this, I'm not Dutch... But I'm nice and the wife's sleeping. So as I was done with ironing I started to get a bit bored ;-)

that last sentence raises so many questions!!!!

 

[talbazar]

Not really. I've stopped pretending I'm the one wearing trousers at home. Not living in denial made me a much happier man :biggrin:

But if you have more questions, ask! ;-)

Hi 4eyesbetter ,
Apart from the bit about being happier letting his missus run the show - Talbazar is right. You need to scroll right, right down to the bottom of the page an select a different langauge - left hand side of the screen it's a vBulletin setting which is forum specific.

Talbazar, You can NOT be serious ; you've got to stop doing the ironing right now!

Did that. No effect. Then I successfully changed it to German, and then from German back to English. I'm sure there's some kind of tortured Second World War metaphor available, if only I could think of it...

"the wife's sleeping" ......... if you're gentle, isn't this an opportunity?:shrug:

 

[irishref]

it's Dutch alright, but Dutch is no longer Greek to me

 

[Ian_Cook]

I see what you did there.....very good.

Only if she lets him he wants to!

**** I'll get my coat

 

[talbazar]

"the wife's sleeping" ......... if you're gentle, isn't this an opportunity?:shrug:

And why do you think she was sleeping? :france:

Talbazar, You can NOT be serious ; you've got to stop doing the ironing right now!

I know... But at least it's done properly ;-)

 

[Robert Burns]

Lol.

I'll have a look. But I believe there is a drop down box in the bottom left. Make sure that says English.

 

[Dickie E]

But I believe there is a drop down box in the bottom left.

What's the difference between German and German1?

 

[irishref]

What's the difference between German and German1?

Hochdeutsch and Schwäbisch one would imagine :hap:

You're not alone Talzabar. I'm the only man I know who enjoys ironing and polishing boots.

I put it down to dads Army background.
