Hi Oleh, Sorry for the delayed reply..

If you want to use multiple languages on one page, then you have just to put
[setlocale ua_UA] before the ukrainian section and [setlocale en_US] before
the english language (that are surrounded by [L]-tags). You could actually
use the same code in both places.

Then I have a different locale that my server is configured with, so I have
in my pages top-template this code to select the default language if someone
has not choosen it before:
[if scratch mv_locale eq ""]
	[setlocale locale=fi_FI persist=1]
[/if]

Just check the example from

This should work fine
