WARNING! Do not place your translation files here.

Any translation files placed here will be deleted when you update the theme.

Translating the theme

If you have obtained the theme from WordPress.org themes repository, please translate the theme by clicking the Translate Reykjavik link in theme page sidebar.

Otherwise follow these instructions:

  1. Make a copy of the original reykjavik.pot file.
  2. You need to rename the copied file now. The naming convention is based on your language code locale and renaming the file extension to "po". So, the British English file would be named as en_GB.po, for example.
  3. Use Poedit to translate the file and export (save) translation also in mo translation file format.
  4. Upload translated en_GB.mo file into your WordPress language directory, such as /wp-content/languages/themes/reykjavik/en_GB.mo. Alternatively you can put translations in your child theme: /wp-content/themes/your-child-theme/languages/en_GB.mo.

Contributing your translations back to the theme

If you have obtained the theme from WordPress.org themes repository, please translate the theme by clicking the Translate Reykjavik link in theme page sidebar.

Otherwise, if you would like to help out translating the theme, please contribute on our Support Center.
