# Localization You can change your site's main language via **Settings -> General -> Site Language.** Theme language files are located in a **../wp-content/themes/theme-folder/languages/** folder. There are several ways to fill up translations: * It’s easy to localize your site using Loco Translate plugin. Here you can see the tutorial – . * Besides this, you can use a [PoEdit](https://poedit.net/) platform. You can add translation via editing your **.po** file and at the end, PoEdit generates **.mo** file for you. Then you can upload ready translation files to primordial folder (../wp-content/themes/theme-folder/languages/). Before adding translations for static strings it needs to rename language files correctly according to your site languages. You can find a list of language codes at [WordPress in your Language](http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_in_Your_Language). As an example, the language code for French is **fr\_FR**, so you would save the translated files as fr\_FR.po first, then fr\_FR.mo. > In order to save your translations during theme updates, we recommend saving them in **../wp-content/languages/themes/** folder.
