 * I am having an issue where the plugin will change languages in the dashboard 
   and the only way for me to change back to english is to deactivate the plugin.
   Changing the language within the dashboard settings will not change the language.
 * Any ideas?
 * Using the latest wordpress install found on quickinstalls hostgator

 * Hi,
 * Line 19 of rencontre_filter.php :
 *     ```
       if(isset($_COOKIE['lang']) && strlen($_COOKIE['lang'])==5) add_filter('locale', 'set_locale2');
       function set_locale2() { return $_COOKIE['lang']; }
       ```
   
 * So, if language changes when you activate the plugin, you probably have a Cookie“
   lang”.
    - Do you use one of the 3 child themes available ? (they can create this cookie)
    - Try to to change your browser
    - Try to delete the cookie
