Customerly’s interface adapts to different languages automatically based on various detection methods. Below, we explain how each section of the platform behaves and how language settings are determined.

Help Center & Web App

• Both the Help Center and Web App display content based on the user’s primary browser language.

• If a user wants to change the language, they must update their browser’s default language settings.

• There is no manual override within the Customerly interface—changing the browser language is the only way to modify the platform interface language.

Messenger (Live Chat) Localization

By default, the Messenger (Live Chat) autodetects the user’s locale and adapts its interface language accordingly. This ensures that users receive a seamless experience in their preferred language.

However, if you want to force a specific language, follow these steps:

1. Disable automatic detection by setting the autodetectLocale option to false in your Messenger configuration.

2. Set the default language manually in your Customerly project settings.

How to Force a Specific Language in Messenger

• Use the autodetectLocale setting in the Messenger customerly.load() function.

• Set it to false to disable automatic detection and apply the default language you selected in your dashboard.

• Example:

autodetectLocale: false

Accepted Values:

• true (default) → The Messenger adapts to the user’s browser language.

• false → The Messenger remains in the language set in your dashboard.
