 * Hi!
 * I want to change my wordpress page’s language. What I did:
    – read the official
   guide – download Hu_hu.mo. Upload it to wp-content/language – in wp-config i 
   change the original line: define(‘WPLANG’, ‘Hu_hu’);
 * But the page is still in english. What I dod wrong?
 * Thanks

 * On my setup the folder is wp-content/languages
 * Perhaps that’s the problem?

 * Try `define('WPLANG', 'hu_Hu');` but bear in mind that this is only going to 
   affect the back end of the site. The front end is controlled by your theme, so
   it depends upon:
    a) whether the theme is translation-ready b) you have installed
   an appropriate language file in the theme’s folder

 * OKay. I created wp-content/languages and defined (‘WPLANG’, ‘hu_Hu’). I checked
   th euploeded language file is hu_Hu.mo. I got this: Fatal error: Allowed memory
   size of 67108864 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 30720 bytes) in /home/a6676419/

 * That’s a separate issue. Try [increasing the memory available to PHP](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/253495#post-1017842).
