 * Could you tell me please how can I switch to a language that is already translated(
   I have the .mo, .po files in the ‘langs’ folder)? Also my wp-config.php file 
   has the define WPLANG row but still everything is in English.
 * Thanks in advance!

 * I guess events manager recognizes the language of your wordpress installation,
   so if you have installed wordpress in english, events manager appears in english…
   was that understandable?
    If you want your visitors to be able to switch languages
   you need to setup a translation plugin, like qTranslate or WPML, mqTranslate 
   works better than q…

 * Is your WordPress admin area running in the language you want it to be?

 * 1. I have the ‘Admin in English with Switch’ plugin, which is confusing indeed.(
   I switched it off and tried to install the ‘Events Manager’ plugin again.)
    2.
   Only 57% is translated to the language I would like to use on the site.
 * Considering the above things, there are still such untranslated expressions on
   the page that are contained and translated by the .po file (e.g. _Date/Time_).
 * Anyhow, I am going to customize and translate it according to my needs – thank
   you very much guys for the responses!
