Default Installation
Fusion Registry will install one language - English. Other languages can be added via the various structures within the system. What is displayed in the Registry depends on the setting of the 'Master Language button.
In the example below, you can see that several languages are available. They are displayed by reference to the ISO 639-1 codes. Click here to see the list of ISO codes
