How to change backoffice labels default language

How to make backoffice labels default language to en_GB. Its currently picking up en_US. Using hybris 6.5.

I wasn't able to see the label due to which null was visible on the values, when checked label, it wasn't empty. But had a different language empty(en_US) which I believe is default languae/fallback language being picked up, when i added value in en_US, it worked. I wish it to work in en_GB.

If you want to change the default locale of backoffice/cockpit login page, without using "language selector" (maybe you don't want to display this selector. So let's suppose that this selector desn't exist):

enter image description here

There is a better solution, that doesn't require java code. Simply all you have to do is override login.zul, buy adding a text input. And note that :

  1. Input name must be : "locale"
  2. Input type must be : "text" (type="hidden" didn't work for me. You can hide it using CSS)

example of login.zul :

 <h:form action="j_spring_security_check" method="post">
     <textbox type="text" placeholder="Email/Username" class="email-input" name="j_username"/>
     <textbox type="password" placeholder="Password" class="email-password" name="j_password"/>
     <textbox type="text" class="hidden-locale-input"  name="locale" value="en"/> 
     <button type="button" class="login" label="Login" />
 </h:form>

All these inputs will be passed to BackofficeAuthenticationSuccessHandler.java as a map. In BackofficeAuthenticationSuccessHandler.java, hybris will use this map and search a parameter named "locale". We already provided this parameter, with his value (en) by creating the input "locale" in login.zul

This will work without overriding the native implementation of BackofficeAuthenticationSuccessHandler.java.

In OOTB, there is a class BackofficeAuthenticationSuccessHandler. Here it picks the current locale in the class(CockpitLocaleService). Try by writing a custom authentication handler to make changes and set the language you want to show.
