Joomla-cms: [4.0] Cannot save Articles created on the frontend. Error: Save failed with the following error: Field 'language' doesn't have a default value

[bayareajenn]

Steps to reproduce the issue

1. Install J4 with Blog Sample Data
2. Add a Menu Item Type: Create Article to the Main Menu Blog Menu with Access of Registered.
3. Select Blog as the Category in the Options Tab for that Menu Item.
4. Go to the frontend and login (as any UG. I did it as a Super User.)
5. Click the new Menu Item you just created and add a Title and a bit of text if desired.
6. Save it.

Expected result

That the article would save.

Actual result

Error: Save failed with the following error: Field 'language' doesn't have a default value and the article will not save.

Funny thing is that no where in the Create Article tabs is there a language field to select a language from.

Thanks @franz-wohlkoenig and @brianteeman

The problem is that the frontend edit form doesnt use the global edit layout - grrr

[bayareajenn]

Ah, bummer. The good thing is that you knew to even look at that. I only knew there was a problem. I had no idea how to sort it. Thank you so much for looking. Let me know if there's something I'm equipped to help with and I will.

@franz-wohlkoenig I'll totally test more of them once I'm through testing com_workflows and some TM website audits for the JUGs. I love testing!
