Hi Chris,

In my country the decimal separator is comma instead of point, and thousands are separated by points instead of commas. Is it possible to change this?

Another question related, is it possible to change the next button's text (same for "send" button in the chat), so I can put it in the local language?

Thanks a lot.

This is determined by LANGUAGE_CODE in your settings. But oTree has not been translated to every language. What is your language ?

Ah, ok. The language I need is portuguese (Brazil).

If you set LANGUAGE_CODE to "es" it won’t fix the text but at least you will get the comma decimal separator.

Yes, thanks Chris.

I've tried also with "pt-br" (brazilian portuguese) and "pt" (generic portuguese) and it helps to fix the comma/point thing.

The text is not a big issue in my case (my intended audience won't have problem with few common words in english), but looking forward to have the possibility to have it in portuguese in the future. Also, if otree staff needs help with the translation to portuguese, I might be able to help with that (I suppose). Just let me know.

Thanks again.
