    How about it Webflow? When can we expect this feature? In the help article it says you can change primary locale at any time. But you forgot to mention you'll have to switch the text of all your pages and all your CMS collections in order to actually change your primary locale. There is no option or button saying "switch primary locale".

    This is really needed!

    This is very much needed! The localization package is so expensive. How is such a trivial feature not included... For larger sites, how do you want us to handle this? I need to retranslate all pages in all locales

    Yes, and please stop lying in the following article with the totally inaccurate sentence: "You can change your primary locale at any time."

    Ability to switch the primary locale in a way that all the content(static and CMS) on the locale also switches over.
