Hi, which map do you use? Google Maps, OSM?

Did you try to test only "en" value (or to test e.g. "de", etc.)?

Yes, i'am using the 3.0.6 version.

I have just tried under chrome instead of firefox, it still load the map in french and not in the language set, when i look in the source code of the page it doesn't pass the language setting :

Hmmm, really no idea what can be wrong, maybe some cache issue :idea:

Testing on another server, without any problem:

Everything OK in the code:

Hi, I would like reopen this post. I have a similar issue with language translations. The language of the map is correct, but the language of the route input field label "From Address: " and submit button "Get Route" remains in english, no matter what language I enter in the settings. I have installed german language pack.

Version used is 3.0.8

Is there something I have missed? Can anybody give advice?
Thanks a lot

Hi, from address and get route are component system language strings, so they are translated by the language which is active in Joomla!.

Do you use component or plugin? Is your language file for the component or plugin up-to-date?
