Searching forums in my language?

Is there a way to narrow Forum Search Results down to a specific language?
In the spirit of "RT(f)M", I'm doing my best to find answers to my problem from historic posts, but the search returns results in all languages (most of which are not helpful to me).
Thanks!
I am a translator!
Nope.

We are all volunteers here and the reason why we help each other is we love sharing and especially sharing free software (info and tips included). We are also mostly decent people and I assure you no one is gonna start yelling at you 'RTFM' or 'whatever nonsense'.
Ask your question. Worst case scenario is no one will be able to help you because of lack of knowledge, but yeah, in any case no one will bite you, insult you or criticize you.
Welcome to the forumello de Triskello btw :)
Grazie! Muchas Gracias! Danke! etc.
I just built my own libre x200 (frankensteined from 2 defunct laptops), librebooted it, etc. It's a thing of beauty, and I'm proud of it so far.
Now, my problem:
I subscribe to NordVPN and I'd like to use it. There seems to be a Long-standing bug in the gnome network manager (I found posts dating back to '12) where it does not always parse OpenVPN config files (i.e.: .ovpn extension files). A work-around that seems effective for some people is to dissect the config file manually, and then point network-manager to where the certificates and config files are located. I've tired this with no luck.
Strangely, I can start an OpenVPN session with the standard (un-parsed) config file by simply: "sudo openvpn --config name.of.nord.config.ovpn".
After I start a vpn session from the command line, everything connects but DNS does not work. I can ping outside addresses, like 8.8.8.8, but DNS lookups don't work.
So here's what I think the problem is, but I don't have a clue about how to fix it:
1) I think there is some kind of permissions problem trying to start openvpn with the gnome network-manager. I checked the "allow all users to use this connection", but find it odd that I can make all these modifications without every sudo-ing...
2) Regarding command line openvpn, DNS doesn't work. I the problem may reside in dhcp somehow, but I don't know how to go about fixing it. It seems like DHCP "should" accept and update-resolv from the openvpn configuration files.
Thanks for any help!
Sorry, copying my above question and creating a newly titled forum topic.
