I have retry it, even with adding more languages to my WordPress website with the WP Multilanguage plugin disabled, and after adding more languages and enabling WP Multilanguage, there rest only 1 language active and it is the first language en-US. I can’t add new custom languages at all. My test website is standard WordPress Version 4.8.2 with no extra plugins enabled. It seems very hard to add new custom languages or what do I wrong? Thanks in advance for any further assistance or help. - This reply was modified 8 years, 8 months ago by [alainmelsens](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alainmelsens/). * [VaLeXaR](https://wordpress.org/support/users/valexar/) * (@valexar) * [8 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/add-language-not-working/#post-9570539) * Can You make screenshot with yours multilingual settings from admin panel? * [Anticosti](https://wordpress.org/support/users/anticosti/) * (@anticosti) * [8 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/add-language-not-working/#post-9570578) * This is working for me, when adding a new language from: wp-admin/options-general. php Hope you can get it running… * [VaLeXaR](https://wordpress.org/support/users/valexar/) * (@valexar) * [8 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/add-language-not-working/#post-9570686) * I can not reproduce this error.

See on: [https://prnt.sc/gvbj1y](https://prnt.sc/gvbj1y) With your WP Multilanguage plugin enabled, it’s not possible for my to add any languages. Then see the second screenshot where you can see that I only can select one standard language. There is no notice elsewhere on the screen that indicate that I have more languages to select etc. See on: [https://prnt.sc/gvbm6w](https://prnt.sc/gvbm6w) Hopefully this can help you to look furtheron…? * [VaLeXaR](https://wordpress.org/support/users/valexar/) * (@valexar) * [8 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/add-language-not-working/#post-9570989) * Try reinstall plugin with deleting all WP Multilang options from database.
