Enabled languages

Which locales appear in the language switcher. At least one must stay on; default must remain checked.

Settinglanguages_enabled

Enabled languages

Only checked languages appear in the public language switcher.

Where to find it

Admin → Settings → Settings (first tab) → Languages → Enabled languages

Setting key: languages_enabled (JSON list of locale codes)

How it works

Visitors pick from this list when a language menu is shown. Detection also resolves only to enabled locales (else default).

If the list is empty/missing in storage, the product may treat all built-in locales as enabled — keep an intentional checklist.

Common problems

Default language cannot be unchecked

Change Default language first.

Switcher shows languages you do not want

Uncheck them here. Hiding the header/footer menu alone does not remove them as detection targets.
