# Translations Update

## Update Companion Theme Translate File

We are improving the **Companion** theme in every update with new features and options. Some of them display on the front end of the website. Therefore, it needs to update the language and translation files to translate the new strings in the theme.

The first thing to do is to update the main language file, where all the theme strings are stored. Go to the **Dashboard > Loco Translate > Themes > Companion** and choose **Edit template.**

{% hint style="warning" %}
This is NOT a translation file. Manual editing of source strings is not recommended.
{% endhint %}

Click on the **Sync** button to merge new strings from the source code to the main language file.

Click on the **Save** button to save the new strings.

Go to the list of the translation files for updating the needed translations.

Select your translation file and click on the **Sync** button and **Save** changes.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.stylemixthemes.com/companion-theme-documentation/translation-and-localization/translations-update.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
