Override defaultLanguage in localStorage about jutsu HOT 2 CLOSED

Hey @qsdamar thank you for the kind words!

Unfortunately what you are suggesting would be a major vulnerability if possible, <iframe> does not allow this sort of behaviour on cross-domains due to security policies (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/iframe#scripting) — I'm assuming you are using jitsi hosted with them

If you are self-hosting jitsi then you would be able to have the <iframe> under the same domain which would enable you to manipulate its DOM objects directly. Nevertheless, if you decide to self-host jitsi, I believe you would be better off looking at the defaults and server-side configuration of jitsi to change the language in there

I recommend you checkout their community for more information on how to setup this directly within a Jitsi instance you manage:

Hello @this-fifo, thank you for the quick answer.

Yes, we are using self-hosted Jitsi but the client app is a bit specific. I'm using React inside the Electron desktop app, and as far as I know, the Electron release build does not have a domain (where the localStorage is located), it basically uses file:// for the domain. Does that mean that we can not use the same domain even if we have self-hosted Jitsi?

I'm not sure if you are familiar with this approach, but any answer would be appreciated.
