Thanks, Hans, this did work.Now I can have wikigroups with French (selected other languages to follow). <br><br>Next will be to try the language detection script for the principal wikigroup (most of the content there is English, but meeting the user at least on the level of commands in their language (for what languages there are) is an advantage).
