             Summary: Support a falling back to non-country locale to look for translations
                 Key: NIFI-9623
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-9623
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: NiFi Registry
            Reporter: Rob Fellows


There is currently only a `messages.es.xlf`. This is the generic Spanish version of the text. However, most users will have their browser locale set to their language-country combination. Meaning users from Mexico would have a locale of `es-mx` and the current logic will try to find the messages files for `es-mx` and not find it, then default to the english version. However, it might be better to strip off the country and try again in cases like this and give the user an opportunity to get the messages for the generic language which in this example would be `es` and it would return those messages.

 

The same issue exists in FDS: NIFI-6732. There is a solution up in PR form: https://github.com/apache/nifi-fds/pull/57
