Description

On Tiki23, Tiki24 and master there is a regression as the user preferences "Language" is "forced" by default to French.

On a new installation as soon as I enable Multilingual features the tiki displays in French. (the other options like default language are still on English).

It seems the user preferences are set by default with the French language and are taking over even if I didn't set anything.

It is also possible as the option "Users can choose the language of their interface" that is enable by default (even if multilingual is disable) BUT this setting is not accessible for the user as "User preferences screen " is disable by default. They are needed together !
If "Users can choose the language of their interface" then obviously they should be able to do it (User preferences screen should be enable) else they will be stuck with a possible language selection they can't change. (like what we have now).


Solution
  1. By default the language user preferences should be unset (use default site)
  2. By default the option "Users can choose the language of their interface" should be unset (to avoid unwanted effects... the user may choose multilingual and move away without checking children options)
Workaround
Just tested - new install, enabled feature_multilingual and still in (US) English... is it still doing this for you?
