Changing language support

Use WebSphere Commerce Accelerator to change the languages that customers can use in your store.

About this task

To add languages to your store that are not in the Available languages list, use Configuration Manager to add the additional languages to the WebSphere Commerce instance.

Procedure

  1. Open the WebSphere Commerce Accelerator.
  2. Click Store > Change Profile. The Store Profile notebook opens. If you do not see this menu, then your logon ID does not have the appropriate authority to perform this task. Contact your Site Administrator.
  3. From the left navigation frame, click Language. The Language tab displays. The Selected languages list displays the languages already supported by your store. The Available languages list displays languages that you can add to your store. You have the following options:
    • To add support for a language to your store, select a language in the Available languages list and click Add.
    • To remove support for a language from your store, select the language from the Selected languages list and click Remove. You cannot remove a language that is specified as the default language. To remove this language, first specify another language as the default, then remove the language.
    • To change the default language, select the language to be the default, and click Set as Default Language.
  4. If you want to complete another task in the Store Profile notebook, click the appropriate page in the left navigation frame. If not, click OK to save your settings and return to the WebSphere Commerce Accelerator home page.
