How to remove the language switcher 2 years 4 months ago #55020

Kansen OFFLINE Fresh Lemon Posts: 4 Karma: 0	Hi everyone, I got LimeSurvey installed by LimeService and finished my questionnaire now (englisch & german). Could anyone tell me how I can remove that Dropdown Box that makes you change the language during the questionnaire? Thx in advance! Best,

Depending on your template this might be in different files. My guess would be the startpage.pstpl. If you use a standard template, I would suggest you copy the template and change things in the new template. So you can always go back to the standard one, if something goes wrong.

Hi, thx for the help but all i could find was: .languagechanger {font-size: 1em;} that was in the template.css I tried deleting that but it made no difference...any other ideas? Thx again,

Of course deleting .languagechanger in the template.css doesn't help. It just deletes the way it is supposed to be styled. What you could do is to use

.languagechanger {display:none;}

While still in the source code, the languagechanger shouldn't appear anymore.

Without knowing which template you use, it is basically impossible to tell you where in the template files you can find the language changer.

For the template "default" you can find {LANGUAGECHANGER} in the survey.pstpl. But this can be different for each template.

Have a look at the manual! It is a really valuable source for information. Here some helpful links:

tpartner OFFLINE LimeSurvey Team Posts: 2869 Thank you received: 428 Karma: 246	The placeholder must be there or the language changer would not appear. What template are you using? You could also use CSS to hide it. Add the following to the end of template.css: .languagechanger { display: none; } [EDIT] holch beat me to the CSS [/EDIT]

jmbaria OFFLINE Fresh Lemon Posts: 2 Karma: 0	This is an old post but I thought I should just post the answer anyway. open the current active template e.g templates/default/surveylist.pstpl look for {LANGUAGECHANGER} in surveylist.pstpl file and remove it. That's all.

I prefer it to reside in welcome.pstl, since then it is only shown at the start of the survey, not on every following page.
