I have 3 locales set up - en_ca, fr_ca, en_us. en_us was selected when installing Craft. I had to change the default locale to en_ca and did so in general.php after installation. I'd like this change in the CP as well. Currently, entering new entries and the CP site link all still point to en_us.

How can I change the default locale?

    Have you checked under "Locales" in Craft Settings? You need to change it here as well.

  • @naboovalley I've change the order so that en_ca is first, followed by en_fr and en_us. However I can't find a 'Set to default' option.

  • As Brad Bell pointed out, changing my user's preferred locale solved the issue. Thanks for your help!

You need to update the locale to en_ca in the control panel under Settings->Locales.

  • The one in the top slot will be the "site default". You can override what the CP is displaying in for a user under their user account preferences.
