Hello. Thank you for this wonderful product! I have a question. Is it possible to change the language for non-registered users? My forum for example is visited from different countries, and the default language is Russian. I would like to make English and Russian on the main page.

At the moment guest users can not change the language, but you could add a simple language selection to the default.aspx
