Change Language
Changing security questions language
During registration, an unregistered user can view the Change language link using which the user can view and select one of the languages configured by the Administrator. When the user chooses a different language, the security questions appear in the same language and the user can register the Q&A Profile in the chosen language.
For example, if an administrator has chosen the Default language as English (United Kingdom), an unregistered user while trying to register will view the security questions in English (United Kingdom) as it is the configured default language and the user can change the language by clicking the Change language link and choose the preferred language for registration.
Both the registered and the unregistered users can view the Change language option in the following Manage My profile workflow, and in a custom action Edit Q&A profile.

NOTE: Change language link is available in the Register page only for the unregistered users. |
