Task Report Macro Headers field from Confluence Inline Tasks plugin are not translated.

      NOTE: This bug report is for Confluence Server. Using Confluence Cloud? See the corresponding bug report.

      Step to replicate

      1. Create a page with a Task Report Macro
      2. Change the language setting for the user to a non English language
      3. Go back to the page.

      Expected Result

      The Task Report Macro is displayed in the selected languages

      Observed Result

      The Headers of the Task Report Macro are not translated even when a different languages is selected.

      Cause

      The mismatch occurs when the user's language is different from the global language. In some places, the global language is preferred over the user's.

      Workaround

      If it is feasible, ensure that the global language (Confluence Admin > Languages) is set to the same language as the end user's. The end user should also ensure that their browser language is set to their preferred language.

            Is there an update on this?

            In our case the headers appear in random languages, Chinese, Japanese, German. Only after refreshing several times, iterating through various languages, do they return to English.

            It seems this Macro relates to the system language environment variable. Please check under administration -> system information the environment variable "LANG" and the systemvariable on the server.

            In our case we had two identical installations in German where one of the installations was displaying the tasks in englisch. That was caused by the system language variable on the server (Java etc.). We could fix that by changing the language in the environment variable to German. We use 5.10.4

            One of our customers is facing this problem too. The global language is German and the Tasks macro displays the table head also in German even if I set my users language to English.

            I'm curious why this is considered "minor" when the related bug is "major". Localization is basically broken if the work around is to support only one language.

            The solution is not feasible, my global language is English, the users interface is in English and the task report column name are in Spanish. We need the task reports column in English.
            There's another way to fix this?
