change default language of wordpress theme

Question

I bought a WordPress theme. I noticed that the purchased theme contains a language directory (de_DE.po, it_IT.po, ru_RU.po ...) https://i.sstatic.net/vecor.png yet I can not change the language of my theme. I installed the plugin "Loco Translate" how can I proceed to change the original language of my theme? thank you.

Answer 1

You can put this code on your wp-config.php:

define('WPLANG','');

Example :

define('WPLANG','de_DE');

After that, you go to WP admin in "Settings" => "General" => "Site language" (Choose your language).

I hope this will help you. :)
