Default language doesn't change

Hey, I’ve been trying to change the default language of my Ghost website but it simply doesn’t switch. Am I missing something? Is there another way to change the default language of my blog?

is your language available? If not translate it and copy it to your server. Read the Wiki

I want to change the default language from English to Spanish. I’m certain Spanish is available. When changing it in the admin panel it just doesn’t switch. What’s going on?

is there an file /var/www/ghost/content/locales available?

Nope. There’s a content folder but no “locales” file or directory. Am I missing something?

Sorry,

I mean /var/www/ghost/content/themes/casper/locales

Hi @Happyfeet01, there’s no “locales” file or directory in the casper folder. Why is it not there?

The Casper theme is not translation ready, instead, you can use GitHub - juan-g/WorldCasper2: WorldCasper2 is Casper 2.x, Ghost's default theme, made translatable into any language (branch i18n-translatable-frontend).

To make the theme translatable, check the full docs Ghost Handlebars Theme Helpers: translate
