For appliances upgraded to version 9.2, if either the 2012 or Legacy theme was implemented prior to the upgrade, that theme will be converted to the 2016 Light theme

Languages Section Changes

45387995.png

The Select Language File dropdown has been renamed Default Language – SecureAuth IdP will use this language even if the end-user's browser is set to another language

Notice

The end-user's browser language settings determine which language appears when the end-user uses SecureAuth IdP, unless the Default Language is set to a different language

If the browser language is set to a language not supported by SecureAuth IdP, then the appliance will use the Default Language setting – note the default for this setting is English

For more information, see Language localization support

Once the language is selected, the Verbiage Editor fields show text in that language which can be edited
