=== Changing the display language ===
If English is not your native language and you would prefer to have the forum display links, buttons, etc. in a different language, you can configure your preferred display language in the UCP.
Simply visit the '''Board Preferences''' and you should already be on the ''Edit global settings'' page.  Here, you can select one of the supported languages under the '''My language''' field.  If your preferred language is not in the list, feel free to send an e-mail to the technician at admin@feministwiki.org or contact [https://twitter.com/@FeministWiki @FeministWiki] on Twitter and ask them to install a further language to the forum.
