Installing your WordPress Blog in another language.
Install, Languages, Wordpress No Comments »You have the possibility to install your WordPress blog in the language you want. To be able to do this, you will have to do some extras steps, which I will explain here.
- Go to http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_in_Your_Language and select your language from the list, and download the file to your hard disk.
- Once it is unzipped, open your FTP Manager and select on the server where you installed the WordPress files, the folder ‘wp-content’.
- Under the folder ‘wp-content’ create a subfolder named ‘languages’.
- In your FTP Manager, on the harddisk browser, go to the place where you have unzipped the language file.
- Select the file with extension ‘.mo’ and upload it to the folder wp-content/languages/
- Finally, open the wp-config.php file, and go to line 17 (define (‘WPLANG’, ”);), and enter between the ‘ ‘ your language code. For Spanish from Spain that would be es_ES.
- Save the wp-config.php file and upload it to the server.
- And that is it. Well done. You have just installed WordPress in the language of your choice.
