Hi there.
I’d like to translate a theme. For now I’ve been using Ghost editor on the browser and following this tutorial, so it’s not clear to me how I’m supposed to load these locale files on the browser. Is this even possible?
If you’re looking for help, please provide information about your environment. If you delete this template and don’t provide any information, your topic will be closed.
Thank you
In the admin:

Inside, for example, post.hbs:
<h1>{{ t "Back"}}</h1>
Will render " Volver". I’ve tried this with the casper theme on Ghost v4.
Hey @SylarRuby Thank you, but how do I upload such a file? Where is that folder you’ve mentioned? Can I somehow download the project to a local directory?
UPDATE:
I think I’ve got it. I have to download the theme files, add the locale file, “re-zip” it, and upload?
Uhmm Ok. After development, do I use the CLI to upload the theme?
What I do is, I navigate to my theme (casper) then yarn install && yarn dev. Make your changes then yarn zip. Your zipped theme will be located in themes/mytheme/dist/. Use the admin to upload the zipped theme then activate it.
You’ll have to create the locales folder ;)
I have ghost installed locally. I don’t quite understand development workflow yet. I want to customize a theme, what do I have to do? I have to have the ghost directory opened in my IDE? Do I begin with ghost start --development?
You say you have Ghost installed. I’ve told you what to do. If you have it all running then you can visit your localhost: http://localhost:2368/ When you get a local dev running, you make your changes then zip your file then upload. I cannot explain it any other way.
Yes. At this point you may need to have a developer help you further.
Thank you, Sylar.
I just don’t see where installing ghost locally fits in this. Why is it any different from just downloading the theme, running npm install, developing, and finally uploading the content in the settings page?
