Title: Language of donation (Paypal) page
Post by: Laurent on November 15, 2013, 12:19:37 pm

Hi

Yesterday someone reported that the donation page on paypal was always in french. Since paypal seems to automatically select the user language, and mine is french, I can't verify this.

Can someone check this for me?

Qui, c'est en français. ;D

I think you can localize it by using a from instead of just a link, not sure though (e.g. see this (http://wine.1045685.n5.nabble.com/attachment/2109371/0/0001-Localize-French-paypal-donation-page.txt)).

What's strange is that I don't force any language, therefore it should take the user's preference. Forcing a language with the "lc" argument doesn't change anything. I don't know what to do :-\

A website in several languages ​​is a normal thing

I think I got a solution.

Just change the  the 'donate' Button from your website from

<a id="donate" href="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr/?cmd=_s-xclick&amp;hosted_button_id=TYJ2XQPG3SXPG" title="Make a donation">Donate</a>
 

to

<a id="donate" href="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr/?cmd=_s-xclick&amp;hosted_button_id=TYJ2XQPG3SXPG&lc=US" title="Make a donation">Donate</a>
 

That worked for me :)
