 * Hello,
 * After migrating from QTranslate to QTranslate-X (Version 3.2.9) there is a problem
   with Russian (default site’s language was Russian):
    1. Most of menus in Admin
   panel are now in English (just one exception is in Russian). 2. It’s impossible
   to select Russian in General Settings – after submitting I got English again 
   and again. 3. At least FireFox Browser directs Russian visitors to English version
   by default, i.e. doesn’t understands the browser language correctly.
 * Please, check these bugs and improve them in next version if they are available
   not only at my site.
 * Also it would be great to have the possibility to add multilingual metatags (
   the old meta plugin of QTranslate doesn’t work with Qtranslae-X).
 * Regards
    Andrey

 * in the admin panel top right, you can change the language, General Settings than
   is automatically adjusted.

 * What is the default language in Settings – Languages?

 * Menus are in Russian now, thanks (I was silly not to find this myself:) ).
 * Settings – Language is set to Russian but it doesn’t help (I got English in frontend).
 * I can see Custom fields below the Posts. It looks like they have something from
   tags but they are not user-friendly. I also installed “Add Meta Tags” plugin 
   but it’s not multilingual.

 * Sorry instead of tags I meant meta-tags. They are not available when creating/
   editing the post.

 * to reproduce it I need Add Meta Tags plugin?

 * have you tried this:
 * See FAQ,
    – Is it possible to translate theme custom fields?

 * [@gunu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gunu/),
 * There is no sense to install “Add Meta Tags” plugin – I showed it just to explain
   that it has no relation to Qtranslate-X. Neither Custom Fields nor “Add Meta 
   Tags” plugin allows to select the language – you can only set everything manually
   with language selectors (ex. [:en])
 * Previously I used “Qtranslate Meta” plugin at [https://wordpress.org/plugins/qtranslate-meta/screenshots/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/qtranslate-meta/screenshots/).
   Its big plus was in possibility to choose the language and type standard metatags
   in each selected language separately (ex. Title, Description, Keywords).

 * maybe something for the future.
 * This topic can be considered as Resolved?
 * EDIT:
    have you tried this; Compatibility Functions on?
 * But:

 * Thx.
    My Compatibility Functions are already on (otherwise doesnt’s work at all).
