Problem/Motivation

By selecting the "Force language" option in this module's settings, the user can still try to change the "Administration pages language" field when editing his profile.
Although the field is rewritten when the user is saved, I believe that leaving the user field disabled is a better UI practice.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Install the module.
  2. Navigate to module configuration page. (/admin_user_language/settings)
  3. Select language for default value. For example English.
  4. Select the "Force language" option.
  5. Save changes.
  6. Edit a user's profile.
  7. Check that the "Administration pages language" field is editable.

Proposed resolution

Through the hook admin_user_language_form_user_form_alter, verify the field exists and, if it exists and the "Force language" option is selected, deactivate the field.

Remaining tasks

None.

User interface changes

The "Administration pages language" field in the user profile will appear disabled if the "Force language" setting is enabled.

API changes
