  • Great

    Was searching for a method to just change the default html lang and not mess with other languages on the html, for a multi language site. On the same time, I wanted the main wordpess backend language to English, because changing it messed with some php variables. This plugin did exactly what I needed.

    Wonderful. Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks a million, Pratik, for making this plugin available to anyone in need of changing the language of posts without having to change the entire admin interface's language. This option should be part of WordPress by default.
