Set up your WordPress Dashboard in another language
By default WordPress displays the English language, but people
from all over the world reside in our
beautiful Tampa Bay area, and some may write for audiences in
another country and in some cases
the site owner would feel more comfortable using WordPress in
their native language. Not to worry,
WordPress is currently available in 73 different languages from
Azeri to Welsh (listed with links
below) and in some cases multiple dialects within those
languages.
Here's how to change the language on your WordPress Dashboard.
In this example we'll use French.
1. Click the link at the bottom low cost seo
services Marketing Companies of the
http://www.austinecom.com/index.asp article for the
language you wish to use.
2. There will be instructions for you in your native language
and links to WordPress.org translated,
as well as links to community and support pages, but right now
you're looking for a link to download
the .mo language file. In our example the download file link is
prominent in a red box on the right
side of the page.
3. Download the file on your computer and remember where you put
it (it may automatically go in
your Downloads folder if you do not specify a
location).
4. If the file is zipped, extract all files and check for the
one ending in .mo.
5. Now you'll need to have FTP access to your site's root folder
for the next step, which is to create a
folder inside the WordPress wp-content folder called
languages.
6. Move the .mo file you downloaded and unzipped into Social
Media Marketing Company the new
wp-content/languages folder you created.
7. Upload the languages folder and its content to the
server.
8. Now open the wp-config.php file in the WordPress root folder
and look for this line (line 73 in our
example):
define ('WPLANG', '');

9. Add your language code (from the .mo file name) to it within
the single quotation marks like this:
define ('WPLANG', 'fr_FR');
If you were changing to a dialect it could be something like
pt_BR for Brazilian Portuguese.
10. Save and upload the wp-config.php file.
11. Log Social Media Marketing Services into your WordPress
Dashboard, and voila - your language
has changed!
