WordPress. How to change site language (staring from WordPress 4)<\/a><\/p>\r\n

    \r\n
  1. \r\n

    To change language in WordPress, you need to reach wp-config.php file. This file is located in the root WordPress directory on your server:<\/p>\r\n

    \"WooCommerce._How_to_change_site_language-1\"<\/a><\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n

  2. \r\n

    WordPress needs to be told which language it should run under. Open wp-config.php<\/strong> and modify this line “define (‘WPLANG’, ”);”<\/strong>, or add it if it is missing. Insert your locale into the quotes. E.g:<\/p>\r\n

    define('WPLANG', 'pl_PL'); <\/pre>\r\n
    You can check the list of locales at the following link<\/a>:<\/p>\r\n
     \"WooCommerce._How_to_change_site_language-2\"<\/a>\r\n<\/li>\r\n
  3. \r\n
    Then, navigate to Dashboard ->Settings -> General tab<\/strong> and on the bottom (where is says Site Language<\/strong>) select the language that you have inserted locale for:<\/p>\r\n
      \"WooCommerce._How_to_change_site_language-3\"<\/a><\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n
  4. \r\n
    Click on Save Changes<\/strong> button and refresh your site, the language will be changed:<\/p>\r\n
