Hi  
I’m following [this tutorial](https://docs.shopware.com/en/shopware-6-en/tutorials-and-faq/setting-up-the-Store-in-a-non-default-language/language-pack) to set up my store in another language (Swedish).

During the First run wizard I opted to install the Language Package, so I can see „Swedish“ in the list of languages. The default language during installation is set to English (as per recommendation).

But in Sales channel \> Storefront \> General settings I can not add or select „Swedish“. And therefor not been able to set it as default language or as the language for the domain.

What am I missing?

Shopware version 6.4.6.0 (Community edition)

Hi @magnus,

in the language pack you have to activate the languages for the sales channels and the administration.  
You can do this by following these steps.  
Settings → Extensions → Language Pack → Sales Channels  
Here you will be able to find and activate Swedish.

Kind regards  
Patrick

Thanks @PatrickHoelscher  
The devil is in the small details, but now it’s working.

Kindly,
