Why is django.contrib.admin in English even though I set LANGUAGE_CODE = 'pl' in the settings?

LANGUAGE_CODE = 'pl'

TIME_ZONE = 'Europe/Warsaw'

USE_I18N = True

USE_L10N = True

USE_TZ = False

LANGUAGES = (
    ('en', _('English')),
    ('pl', _('Polish')),
)

Deleting ('en', _('English')), from LANGUAGES helps but I need it from django-rosetta.

Thank you.

  • Have you updated your `urls.py`? – Wtower Jun 03 '15 at 13:38

  • I dont think this is a duplicate, when i delete LANGUAGES = ( ('en', _('English')), ('pl', _('Polish')), ) django admin is translated to polish – aabb Jun 03 '15 at 14:16

This function can be used in your root URLconf and Django will automatically prepend the current active language code to all url patterns defined within i18n_patterns() 

  urlpatterns += i18n_patterns('',
    url(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),
)

  • okay but why i get redirected to http://localhost:8000/en/admin/ even though I set LANGUAGE_CODE = 'pl' in settings? – aabb Jun 03 '15 at 14:30
  • user logged in django admin needs to see it in polish by default – aabb Jun 03 '15 at 14:31
  • Have you gone through the above mentioned links.Y not you create a language drop down http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11177330/change-locale-for-django-admin-tools(if required) – chandu Jun 03 '15 at 14:32
  • I dont think you get it, it maybe because of my bad english. Ive gone through all the links above but none solves my problem. I dont want drop down to choose between polish and english in django admin. It just needs to be in polish by default. – aabb Jun 03 '15 at 14:39

    I tested by changing the language to LANGUAGE_CODE = 'ru-RU'.And django admin panel by default converted into russian.And did the same for polish language too LANGUAGE_CODE = 'pl'.It works fine. – chandu Jun 04 '15 at 05:56

Simply add this in your settings file.I tested it and works fine.

 LANGUAGE_CODE = 'pl'

When user logged in django admin needs it shows polish by default.Some words are shown in english. Still problem is not solved share the screen shot of the django admin.
