    I’d like to change WordPress language from a Brazilian Portuguese install to the standard English. i know I have to change it in the config.php, but apparently in the wp content – language dir there’s only the brazilian portuguese language. Do I have to upload the english language and edit the config.php file afterwards?
    thanx

  • simply delete the .mo file in /languages

    in wp-config.php
    just make the language line like
    define ('WPLANG', '');

    thank you very much!!!

    I have the same problem but the solution to change the language just doesn’t work, first I uploaded the file es_ES.mo and then when I just fill (‘WPLANG’, ”); with the language I want the file change and all the lines come together.
    It changes from this:

    <?php
    /**
    * The base configurations of the WordPress.
    *
    * This file has the following configurations: MySQL settings, Table

    Prefix,
    * Secret Keys, WordPress Language, and ABSPATH. You can find more

    information by
    * visiting {@link http://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php

    Editing
    * wp-config.php} Codex page. You can get the MySQL settings from

    your web host….

    To this:

    <?php
    /**
    * The base configurations of the WordPress. * * This file has the following configurations: MySQL settings, Table Prefix, * Secret Keys, WordPress Language, and ABSPATH. You can find more information by * visiting {@link http://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php Editing * wp-config.php} Codex….

    And when I try to see my web again it just doesn’t work and it says that it has fatal a mistake in line 1.

    This is a nightmare I already tried to change the language 20 times with notepad and the web doesn’t work now!!

    Thank you very much in advance for your help

    Are you saying you are just changing this:
    ('WPLANG', '')
    to this?
    ('WPLANG', 'es_ES')

    If that’s causing a problem for you, you should try using another text editor.
