First of all: Hi and thanks for this - at first glance - excellent framework and cms.

I read the posts about the translations pro's and con's and managed to change the default language to nl_NL with:

Translatable::enable();
Translatable::set_default_locale('nl_NL');

Is it posible to change the default language, but disable the translation tab in the admin section?

Ok, I managed to hide the translation tab by adding a rule in the function getCMSFields on mysite\code\Page.php

$fields->removeFieldFromTab("Root", "Translations");

Will hide the translationtab on all admin editpages.

I did this because I wanted to change the default language to Dutch, without showeing translation options.

Remove more tabs:
$fields->removeFieldsFromTab("Root", array('Content','Behaviour','To-do','Access','Reports','Translations'));

Maybe it is of use for someone.

EDIT:

This works for all tabs as expected except the Todo tab had to be called To-do instead of Todo like the tab is called.

Is this correct behaviour?

Hi Martijn,
Translatable is meant to be used on multi-lingual sites. If you're not planning on building one and you just want to have your site properly set to Dutch, you don't have to enable Translatable, it should be enough to just set in your sapphire/_config.php:

i18n::set_locale('nl_NL');

This is supposing you're using 2.3.2. Or are you for some reason aiming on doing a multi-lingual site without translations?

No I don't... yet.

But because I could not get the dutch language files of ecommerce to work I added the rule i think...

But your right. It works without the Translatable enable...

should't this be don in mysite/_config.php?

>> should't this be don in mysite/_config.php?

It's just that Silverstripe places its example in the sapphire/_config.php so I just thought to point you to it :-) But sure, you're right, I guess all things particular to your site should be in mysite/, so they won't get lost on upgrades...
