Set the widget language

Openli supports different languages, and this guide shows you how to change your cookie widget's language.

Supported languages

The cookie widget currently supports these languages, in the given jurisdictions:

Language	Supported in jurisdiction	Option value
English (EN)	All jurisdictions	None, or en-us
Danish (DA)	Denmark (DK)	da-dk
Dutch (NL)	Netherlands (NL)*	nl-nl
German (DE)	Germany (DE)*	de-de
Norwegian (NO)	Norway (NO)*	no-no
Norwegian Bokmål (NB)	Norway (NO)*	nb-no
Swedish (SV)	Sweden (SE)*	sv-se
Spanish (ES)	Spain (ES)*	es-es
French (FR)	France (FR)*	fr-fr
Finnish (FI)	Finland (FI)*	fi-fi
Lithuanian (LT)	Lithuania (LT)*	lt-lt
Polish (PL)	Poland (PL)*	pl-pl

*Our widget currently uses the rules from Denmark (DK) for this jurisdiction, with specific support for local rules planned for a future version.

Additional jurisdictions and languages will be added over time.

If you do not specify a language, or if the language you set is not supported by us in the visitor's jurisdiction, English will be used. The table above lists the supported combinations.

Setting the display language

To set the display language, initialize your widget with the locale option set to the value for the language you desire. For example, to use Danish when the jurisdiction is Denmark, your widget's initialization would look similar to this:

legal.widget({
    type: "cookie",
    widgetPublicKey: "...",
    locale: "da-dk",
});
