Setting language field on registration form was created by sentix
I want to create an auto action that allows me set the language tag of the current guest user in the registration form as default.
The "standard" option is not sufficient as i want every user to have dedicated language tag in his params field.
How can I do that?

Why are you needing to do this? Their default language will already be the site default language.
There isn't an easy way to do that. User params storage is handled by Joomla. We just call Joomla's user form API to let Joomla deal with it. So those values are not stored in the CB user object. This means you can't use a Field action to do this. Only way is to use a Code action really late in the registration process. Specifically on onAfterUserProfileSaved trigger. Example as follows.
Global
Triggers: onAfterUserProfileSaved
Type: Code
User: Automatic
Access: Everybody
Action
Method: PHP

Hello kyle, thanks for your quick reply.
I need it, because in the regular registration process, there will be no language tag stored for the user. But when I want to send mails to the user (e.g. by my own mailing routine), I cannot select by langugage as the necessary string is missing. Only if the user has dedicated selected his frontend language, this works fine.
Any idea for that problem?
Regards
Manfred

Language is stored in their params column of _users. How are you selecting it to begin with?

I will search for language string in params field (or use JSON related database functionality) ... To sum it up: I want to have every user record to have the frontend language set in the params field.

You shouldn't need to do a store for that. Adjust your SQL to account for empty string when querying for the default language. Example as follows.
FROM:TO:
If you still want this your only option is as described above. You'll have to use Joomla API to update the Joomla user object and set the language.
FROM:
WHERE `params`->"$.language" = 'ja-JP'WHERE `params`->"$.language" = 'ja-JP' OR `params`->"$.language" = ''If you still want this your only option is as described above. You'll have to use Joomla API to update the Joomla user object and set the language.
