Magento is a platform made in PHP that allows you to create and manage an eCommerce store. With FastyCloudweb hosting, you can create a Magento based eCommerce store in no time. As every eCommerce store is located somewhere in the world, we have to set the timezone and other local settings to let users know about timings, and also to run automated daily tasks. So, Locale settings are important for every website on the internet that interacts with the user at a physical level.
If you are using Magento, you can change or update Locale settings directly from the Administration panel. Magento has an easy and efficient user interface, which makes this task even easier. So, Let’s get started with the step-by-step tutorial. You can refer to the screenshots given after every step to visually understand the process.
Update locale settings in Magento
First of all, Log in to the admin panel of your Magento store. In the main menu, click on the Store option just like the following image. Then, click on the Settings -> Configuration option. The location of the Store option is as follows.
Now, Make sure you are on the General -> General page. In this section, you can quickly update the most important settings in Magento.
On this page, you will see a list of options like Country options, Store information, Locale options, and State options. Expand the Locale options section to see a form in which you can update Locale settings.
Here you can update information like Timezone, Locale, First day of Week, and Weekend days. As these settings change with the location, you can set your Locale anywhere in the world. Enter the information as per your choice in this form.
