 * Hi,
    first of all I’d like to thank you for this great plugin. Good job!
 * I’ve an issue with the default language of WordPress: before I installed the 
   plugin it was italian, but after the installation it switches to English, even
   I’ve tried to change it both in the plugin setting page and in wordpress language
   settings.
 * How can I set italian language as the dafault WordPress language?

 * Do you mean on the client website or on the admin panel?

 * The admin panel language is kept user-by-user thanks to a cookie. If you selected
   a language in the main admin menu, the cookie should be set. If no cookie is 
   set, the default language applies. Check for a cookie called **qtrans_admin_language**
   and eventually remove it.
