How to Change Your Language in the LiveClass Dashboard
LiveClass lets you choose the language you want to use in your dashboard. You can also change your team's default language if you're a workspace owner or admin.
Your language preference is saved automatically and applies whenever you sign in, regardless of the device you use.
Change Your Dashboard Language
Step 1: Open Profile & Settings
Sign in to your LiveClass dashboard and select your profile picture or initials in the top corner. Then, select 'Profile & settings' from the account menu.
Step 2: Find the Language Setting
On the 'Profile' tab, locate the 'Language' field.
Step 3: Select Your Preferred Language
Choose your preferred language from the dropdown list.
The dashboard switches to the selected language immediately. Your preference is saved automatically, so you don't need to select 'Save profile'.
Understand the Language Options
The first option in the Language dropdown lets you follow your workspace or browser's language instead of choosing a specific language.
| Option | What it means |
|---|---|
| Workspace default (Language) | Uses the language configured by your team. |
| Automatic (Language) | Uses your browser's language if LiveClass supports it. Otherwise, it uses English. |
The language shown in brackets indicates the language that will currently be applied.
If your team hasn't configured a workspace language, the Automatic option uses your browser's language when available, or English otherwise.
Choose a Workspace Language (Owners and Admins)
On the 'Profile' tab, locate 'Workspace language' below the 'Save profile' button. Choose the language you want to set as the workspace default. The change is saved automatically.
The workspace language is also used as the default email language for new team invitations. However, the person sending an invitation can select a different language.
Understand Language Priority
LiveClass determines your dashboard language using the following order:
Your Language: The language you've selected in your profile.
Workspace Language: The default language configured by your team.
Browser Language: Your browser's preferred language, if supported.
English: Used when none of the above options are available.
Use Right-to-Left Languages
If you select a right-to-left (RTL) language, such as Arabic, Hebrew, Persian, or Urdu (where supported), LiveClass automatically adjusts the dashboard layout.
Menus, navigation, and other interface elements move to the opposite side of the screen to match the selected language.
Some elements, such as web addresses, codes, IDs, file sizes, and timers, remain left-to-right for readability.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How can I switch back to English if I can't read the current language?
Select your profile picture or initials in the top corner. If you're using a right-to-left language, the account menu appears in the opposite corner.
Open Profile & settings (look for the gear icon), go to the Profile tab, and select English from the Language dropdown. English always appears in its English name, regardless of the selected dashboard language.
You can also access the settings page directly by adding /settings to your dashboard URL.
2. Why are some parts of my dashboard still in English after changing the language?
This is expected in some cases:
Some interface text may not have been translated yet. Untranslated text appears in English.
Content added by you or your team, such as session titles, descriptions, chat messages, and documents, remains in its original language.
LiveClass adds new translations over time. Reload the page to access the latest translations.
3. Why is my dashboard using a different language from my browser?
Your selected Language or your team's Workspace language takes priority over your browser language.
If you want LiveClass to follow your browser's language, select the first option in the Language dropdown (Automatic), provided your team hasn't configured a Workspace language.
4. Does changing my dashboard language change the language of live sessions?
No. Dashboard language and live session language are managed separately.
Changing your dashboard language doesn't affect the language used in live sessions. Attendees can also change their preferred language within the live session room.
For more information, see [Choosing the Language of a Live Session].
5. Which emails are sent in my selected language?
The following account emails follow your language preference:
Welcome emails
Email verification emails
Password reset emails
Recording deletion warning emails
LiveClass uses your individual Language first, followed by the Workspace language, and then English.
Team invitations have a separate Email language setting. Other emails may still be sent in English.
For more information, see [Language for Team Members and Invitations].
6. Does my language preference apply across devices?
Yes. LiveClass saves your language preference to your account. You'll see the same dashboard language whenever you sign in, regardless of the device you use.
