How to hide language selection on Next Experience User Preferences page

[Stefan Reichelt]

Hi all,

After enabling the Internationalization plugin and the first language pack, I want to hide the language selector option for users in Next Experience, so that we can prepare and make it available in a controlled manner later on.

How can I hide that option? I couldn't find any Sys Property for it.

1. Go to the table [sys_choice]
2. Filter the list where table = 'sys_user' and element is 'preferred_language'
3. Set the column 'inactive' to true for any language record you do not wish to appear

I know that article, but I don't want to disable any language. I want to disable the selector drop-down on the User Preferences page in Next Experience.

not possible from the User Preferences for Next Experience.

If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.
