    How to Change my CurrentUICulture

    I'm working with the Vorto package on v7.4.4 and so far so good. I'm ready to test, and view the multilingual output on the front-end. But, I can't seem to change my @System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture.Name.ToString() Specifically I need to test for Spanish (United States). I'm on a Windows 10 machine running Chrome.
    I've added the Spanish (United States) language to my local machine. I've tried changing my location, and my "language for non-unicode programs", and the default language in Chrome.

    I have a webpage setup to display my CurrentUICulture.Name value and all I can get it show me is "en-US". I know I can change it programmatically at runtime using System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("es-US"); but I need to test getting it from the user's culture settings.

    Anyone know the trick to changing my CurrentUICulture?

    Hi!

    What culture do you have connected to the root node host name of your website?

    It was some time ago I played with this but as far as I remember the culture that was set on the root node was used throughout the site, web.config settings did not impact - but maybe it was possible to override the culture in some page load event.

    I guess your are expecting the culture to change based on the browser settings? I’m not sure but I don’t think that this is the default behavior for Umbraco and certainly not good for SEO since in these cases you would want each language to have a unique url.
