SharePoint 2013 drop down menu for language selection

Hi,

Is that possible to make a drop down list menu of language selection for external users in SharePoint 2013? I am noticed that users can choose language that they prefer in SharePoint 2010. But as an site admin, can we create that menu selection for users in SharePoint 2013?

Hi Gula,

In SharePoint 2013, after you install language packs, add the second language into the additional language of the site, then the language of the SharePoint site is based on the language of your brower.  For example, your SharePoint deafult language is English, after installing Chinese pack for your SharePoint, if your browser language is Chinese, the language of the site is Chinese.

In addition, if you are using variation, you can enable VariationsLabelMenu, then there will be a language dropdown menu in your publishing site.
