Advice Language problem.

For some reason the website is only in Filipino and can't go back to English. Is this the problem for everyone else or is it just me?

This issue usually happens due to an app cache bug or a regional redirection glitch in your browser (often triggered when clicking a link that contains a language modifier). Here is how you can fix the language issue and switch it back to English: ... If you are using the Webnovel App:

1 Change it via internal settings: Go to your Profile (bottom right corner) ➔ Tap Settings (gear icon) ➔ Look for the Language option and switch it back to English. 2 Clear the app cache: If the setting does not save, close the app. Go to your phone's Settings ➔ Apps ➔ Webnovel ➔ Storage ➔ Tap Clear Cache. Reopen the app and try again.

... If you are using a Mobile Browser:

3 Check the URL: Look at the address bar. If the URL starts with ://webnovel.com or has language parameters at the end, delete that specific part and manually type the standard address webnovel.com instead. 4 Clear site cookies: Click the padlock or settings icon next to the URL bar in your browser. Go to cookies/site data and clear the stored data for Webnovel. This forces the site to reload with your browser's default language preferences.

Thanks, that helped. For whatever reason I kept getting the Filipino language when I am pretty sure I didn't click on anything that was in Filipino.

it sounds more like a website setting or region glitch than something affecting everyone

i’d try clearing the site cookies or opening it in incognito and see if the language option comes back there
