Often, the creator of the paid theme translates the theme into their language. The translations of a paid theme are therefore quite random, unfortunately.<\/p>\n<p>When purchasing a premium theme, you know that at least your theme is in English.\u00a0However, the translation into other languages \u200b\u200bmay be noted in the theme description.\u00a0It is therefore up to you to do the research concerning possible translations of this WordPress theme.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_201\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\">\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-201\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Method to translate your WordPress theme.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Finally, the majority of premium themes, and therefore paid, are ready to be translated into all possible languages \u200b\u200bincluding French or Arabic for example.\u00a0As a result, you can very easily translate your WordPress theme into French or any other language.<\/p>\n<h2>Buy a WordPress theme translation<\/h2>\n<p>If you lack computer knowledge to translate your theme into French, one solution is to\u00a0<strong>buy a translation of your WordPress theme<\/strong>\u00a0on the internet.\u00a0Indeed, some websites offer to download a\u00a0<strong>paid translation for its theme<\/strong>.\u00a0You then only have to pay the price of this translation is to place the purchased language files in the correct directory of your theme.<\/p>\n<p>Why paid translations?\u00a0Doing French translations of WordPress plugins and themes requires time and involvement from its author.\u00a0You have to translate the WordPress theme qualitatively and ensure updates to reflect any additions of language keys.\u00a0In other words,\u00a0<strong>buying a translation of WordPress themes in French<\/strong> saves you time and ensures the quality of translation, enough to justify an average price of 15 \u20ac per theme for a French translation.<\/p>\n<p>For example, you will find many translations of WordPress themes on\u00a0<a title=\"Paid translations of WordPress themes &amp; plugins\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wptrads.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">WPTrads<\/a>.\u00a0As mentioned above, the price of a WordPress theme translation costs around \u20ac 15 on this site.\u00a0This is a merchant site dedicated to translations of WordPress themes and plugins.<\/p>\n<h2>Free French translation on WordPress themes<\/h2>\n<p>Working with many premium WordPress themes, including Elegant Themes, we will be offering you\u00a0<strong>free French translations<\/strong> this year,\u00a0produced by us.\u00a0In particular, you will find French translations of Aggregate, Divi, and Nexus themes for Elegant Themes as well as other premium themes such as DirectoryEngine or SmartMag (one of the most downloaded paid themes in France).<\/p>\n<p>If you do not wish to wait for the publication of the French translations of these themes, contact us via the contact form.\u00a0You will receive the translation of the topic which interests you free and quickly.\u00a0A simple message for the\u00a0<strong>free French translation of WordPress<\/strong> SmartMag, DirectoryEngine, Aggregate, Divi, and Nexus\u00a0<strong>themes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"yarpp-related\">\n<h3>Articles On The Same Theme:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a title=\"Choose your WordPress theme\" href=\"https:\/\/premiusmarketing.com\/ca\/choose-your-wordpress-theme\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Choose your WordPress theme<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a title=\"Difference premium theme and free theme\" href=\"https:\/\/premiusmarketing.com\/ca\/difference-premium-and-free-wordpress-theme\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Difference premium theme and free theme<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to translate a WordPress theme?\u00a0How to translate your theme into French?\u00a0When installing a free theme or a paid theme, it is common to have the unpleasant surprise that the French translation of the theme is not available.\u00a0Discover the method to\u00a0translate your WordPress theme into French.
