    Hey,

    I have a german website, but I like to have my profile in english to have the backend in english. BNFW seems to be the only plugin which will stay in german.
    Can somebody confirm this (to me) strange behaviour?

    Thank you!

    Hi @quix8,
    Thanks for your message.

    BNFW will take on the language that is set in WP Admin > Settings.
    If you can change the language in your profile, this is most likely added by another plugin that BNFW doesn’t have an integration for.

    If this is the case, can you let me know which plugin this is?

    The user language for each user was introduced by WordPress 4.7 it seems:

    Logged in users can select among any of the installed languages for the admin interface.
    I use this setting to change my backend to english. And only BNFW stays in the websites language (german).

    Hi @quix8,
    Thanks.

    I completely missed the release of that feature. I have added it to my roadmap to be fixed in the next version. I don’t have a timeframe for this yet but am hoping ‘soon’.
