SharePoint News Digest language settings
Hi, maybe someone can shed some light on this topic. Our customer was wondering what determines the default language of the automated news digest, in particular the default e-mail text and messag...
Update:
The setting was specific to the site collection I was sending the news from (not the user).
Check the locale in the region settings on a site (_layouts/15/regionalsetng.aspx) and confirm or change them.
Counter-intuitively, this is not controlled from the language setting on a site (_layouts/15/muisetng.aspx).
In my opinion, this is a mistake on MS/Product side: of course the language of the news emails should be defined by the language (not region) of the site.
Update locale on multiple sites borrowing some powershell from here:

Hope this saves someone else time........... because it was a waste of mine!
