HTML Lang Attribute

[Andy9999]

By default the tag is rendered having the lang attribute set to language and location for example "en-us" for US English.

We don't want to differentiate between en-us and en-en for example, or de-de and de-au so we cut the location off leaving the two letters of the language code in the rendered tag. We are not big enough of a site to have individual pages for each location and language is enough.

I could submit this as a change if there is any interest in this and would be glad not having to make a custom build anymore.

What are your thoughts? Should this somehow be enabled/disabled? What would be the best way? Maybe the HostSetting or PortalSetting table? Would that be a good place to add a new setting? For example LanguageCodeWithoutLocation Y/N with the default being 'N'.

Here is some more info about the lang attribute: https://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_lang.asp

I'd think a portal setting, maybe something like ExcludeRegionFromLanguageAttribute

That is a great name for the setting! Thank you.
