I know about and use a language switcher panel, but this setting is only remembered temporarily in a cookie.
It's more professional to have a preference upon registration to have a user field like user language. This is missing now in PHP-fusion!
A registrant should be able to select his preferred language out of the installed languages. The site admin must be able to enable or disable this feature. (which can be done through user field management)
When the user logs in the site must display the preferred language.
Many cms'es has this feature

I've created some simple custom user fields, but the problem is to link the preferred language so that it is used when a user logs in.
I suppose you are right it requires some more modding.
Can you do it?

Mmm I Think the language the user selected is only available AFTER the user is logged in..
Otherwise the system does not know witch user is making the request.
For guests the "cookie system" can be used.
I am working on it, but in my opinion:
In Maincore.php search for: (about line 142 in my version)
and after it add something like:
Assuming the value in yourcreateduserfield holds the name of the language e.g. Dutch.

Unfortunaly, the above solution does not work.
The Userdata is loaded after the Language settings are applied.
Looking for something better.

Getting better if you add this after the previous addition:

That looks like a modified version from Developer: Marwelln (Marwelln@gmail.com) language switcher.
I all ready have that on several sites, for example: www.php-fusion.in
But I can see your version retrieves the lang_user from the database and then sets it and uses it.
Nice solution. Thanks.
I will try this on some Belgium sites where I need both Dutch and French.
