 * I own a website and i want to translate it to Dutch. I installed a simple language
   plugin to Translate the website into Dutch and i was told to add the concerned
   language’s .mo file in languages folder in wp-content. How can i search for Nederlands/
   Dutch’s .mo file? Where can i get that file? Do i only have to add one .mo file
   or are there multiple files for a language? Please help fast.
 * Thanks
    Talha

 * You can grab the language pack from here: [http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_in_Your_Language](http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_in_Your_Language)
 * You will likely be redirected to the dutch WordPress community site. You can 
   install another language by copying the .mo/.po files in wp-content/languages,
   or download a complete, fresh WP install only in dutch.

 * I already checked that codex page of wordpress. I went into the repository and
   couldn’t understand which files to download for language. So my question remains,
   do i only have to upload 1 .mo file for or are there multiple language files 
   needed to work out perfectly?

 * To my knowledge, you will need at least 4 files.
 * admin-nl_NL.mo
    admin-nl_NL.po nl_NL.mo nl_NL.po
 * I work with WP in french, but my guess is it should be the same in dutch. I can’t
   help you further since I don’t read dutch, hence I don’t understand a single 
   word of what’s written on the dutch page…

 * Ok i have already got the nl_NL.mo and nl_NL.po files. Where can i download the
   admin files? i cant find them in the repository. Where did you get them?

 * Been a while since I downloaded those. Can’t seem to find them on the french 
   WP page neither. I’m pretty sure I’ve downloaded only the language files in the
   past.
 * In any case, what I’d do is I’d download the native dutch WP install and copy
   all the files that are in the wp-content/languages folder, then edit wp-config.
   php, around line 79.
 * define(‘WPLANG’, ‘en_US’);
 * Replace en_US with nl_NL.
