VERY IMPORTANT:

Translation files will be deleted when you update the theme via FTP, you have to keep the translation file in your computer to reupload it when updating the theme.

HOW TO TRANSLATE

Language translation is possible using the standard WordPress translation function.

This theme is very easy to translate as the .mo .po (pot) files are provided within the language sub folder of the theme.

5. Click the Update button in the main Poedit UI.
6. Save the file:
   1. For a plugin like filename-xx_XX.po with xx_XX for your language and country.
