    Hello! I can’t get localization to work on the website. I have used a guide linked at https://www.8theme.com/demo/docs/woopress/#!/2_how_to_translate. Also I’ve tried to place my localization files which were generated with Poedit at woopress-child/languages/, woopress/languages/ folders and at wp-content/languages/themes with woopress-* & woopress-child-* prefixes.
    Nothing helps. Help me out.

    Please, contact administrator
    for this information.

    Hello,

    You need to translate parent woopress theme, you don’t need to translate child theme. I think you did not make changes in the child theme that have child theme text domain.
    Please read this article https://xstore.helpscoutdocs.com/article/30-base-theme-translation (the same for woopress theme).
    Place translation files into the /wp-content/languages/themes/ folder with correct names (language name and woopress theme suffix, e.g woopress-de_DE.po, woopress-de_DE.mo).
    Feel free to ask, if you have any other questions.

    Regards
