Changing language of Stats for other users

    The JetPack statistics are showing up in the language defined in my personal WP.com profile… for all the users of the WP.org website. In our case, I blog in French on WP.com and built a German website for friends with WP.org.

    I would like to be able to maintain French as my language on WP.com and switch what they see to German. But I cannot figure out how to do that. The only idea I have is to deinstall JetPack, create a WP.com account in German and use that account to then reinstall Jetpack on WP.org.

    Can anyone help me on this? Thanks ahead,

    Jetpack uses your site’s WPLANG constant to define the language to be used in the Jetpack menus in your dashboard, and on your site.

    Could you try to set your site’s language to de_DE, as explained here:
    https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Installing_WordPress_in_Your_Language

    You can also download language files to translate the rest of the WordPress interface here:

    If that doesn’t help, could you post your site URL here, so I can have a look?

    Hi Jeremy,

    My site is set to de_DE (https://greifswald-logopaedie.de/). I translated everything a few months ago.

    What surprised me is that Jetpack is in German everywhere in the Backoffice, except in the Stats. And there the language for all users is defined by my personal settings in WP.com (the account I used to link Jetpack to WP.org). I did the test. Changing in Personal settings the “Interface language” to german has now changed the Stats to German. Again, the rest was already in German.

    But I don’t want my WP.com settings to affect everyone using the WP.org website.

    Tell me if you need anymore info. Thanks for your response on this case.

    Thanks for providing more details about your problem. I could reproduce the problem, nice catch!

    I created a trac ticket (#1891-plugins) to log the bug, and we’ll work on getting this fixed. I’ll post again here as soon as we can address the issue.

    Glad I could help. Don’t worry about informing me of the bug fix. To avoid the problem, I had a German team member open a WP.com account and reconnected Jetpack using their account.

    Love WP by the way!
