    Changing the language of a WP blog.

    Anyone ever set up a non english WP2.2.1 blog,
    I've set up a fresh install and set up the languages folder in wp-includes and stuck the correct. mo file in there, and adjusted the wp-config file to tell WP to use the mo file as language default, but the fucker isnt working..hehe
    anyone got any ideas.

    I installed this as french:

    The admin is french ( wich I really didn't care), but some stuff remains in English ...
    Probably a half done translation, or some bugs. I haven't tweaked it yet , this weekend probably.
    I know that Asspimple is stoopid ... As he says, it is a FACT !

    But I can't figure out how he can breathe or type , at the same time ....

      Did you have to do anything more than the steps I outlined above?
      Mine's supposed to be in spanish, but the whole thing is still in english.

          No.. just uploaded the files, changed my config, and got a half translated version...

          I did tough change the page titles ( horizontal top menu ) by changing the text.

          Try to reinstall ...

            Edit the "locale.php" file on the /wp-includes/ directory if you need to change days/month etc's...

              By adjusting the config file and uploading the language files it should adjust this automatically I think.

              If I could get it to wirk I'd show ya..hehe

                    That's exactly what I did, but for some reason, it's not working.
                    thanks for the link though.
