If you find installing plugins troublesome, you can also use the following method to set the website to English by default while displaying Chinese for yourself. The specific steps are as follows: 1. Go to Settings > General > Site Language and change the site language to Chinese (if it's already Chinese, change it to English). 2. Click on your personal account information (top right of the page), change the Language to Chinese, and save. 3. Return to the site settings and set the site language to English. This way, you will see the Chinese interface when you visit the site, but users will still see the English interface. The first step is to set it to Chinese because if you chose English during installation, Chinese is not installed by default; you need to set it once for Chinese to appear.
