Language & Time Zone
Enabled languages, default language, and default time zone for the workspace.
What This Is For
Languages and Timezone set workspace defaults for UI language and clocks when a person has not chosen their own settings yet. You also choose which languages people may pick in their profile.
In the product: Configure → Languages and Timezone (under Customize Your Workspace).
These defaults matter for things like welcome emails when a new user has no language preference, and for displaying times until someone sets a personal time zone.
Who This Is For
Workspace administrators.
How Defaults and Preferences Interact
- Workspace defaults — Default Language and Default Time Zone apply when the user’s profile has no language or time zone yet (for example a newly created account).
- Browser detection — On login, Skillhabit may detect language and time zone from the browser and offer them in the welcome dialog; the person can change them there.
- Enabled languages — Only languages you enable appear as choices in profiles. The current default language cannot be removed from the enabled list.
How to Configure
- Open Configure → Languages and Timezone.
- Under Enabled Languages, open the picker and select which languages people may choose.
- Under Default Language, pick the language used when the user’s language is unset or a translation is missing.
- Under Default Time Zone, pick the zone for users who have not set one yet.
