Hi,
I’m trying to install french translation for Vantage Theme.
I dropped fr._PO.mo et fr.FR.po on my database
I cannot find the wplang section on config.php to change the language.
Can you help me?

    Hi Julien

    Thanks for reaching out.

    Your translated files should ideally be stored in a child theme. That’s safest place to keep them. Here is a child theme you can use:

    https://siteorigin.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/vantage-child-translation-ready-02.zip

    It can be installed from Appearance > Themes > Add New: Upload Theme. Your files can go in the Languages folder.

    It’s normal for Customizer and menu location settings to reset when activating a child theme – unfortunately.

    Your site is already running in French, you shouldn’t need to set wp lang manually.

    Let us know how that goes.

    It looks like you’re still using the parent Vantage theme. Where are your translation files currently stored?
