How to switch standard content in blog on site to german

Hello dear Generatepress team,
I have already set German as the language in the general settings of WordPress, but standard content in English can still be seen in the blog area (e.g. Category, Leave a Comment ...).
Is there a way to switch Generatepress to German?

Many greetings and thank you very much

Hey Ying,
thanks for the fast answer.

I tried your link and downloaded both the GeneratePress theme translation file and the GP Premium plugin file. In my WordPress, neither the folder wp-content / languages / themes nor the folder wp-content / languages / plugins existed. I created both folders and copied the files in. However, this has not changed anything for me after I restarted my local WP installation.

After a bit of testing, I found that the translation works, but 2 headers in the single blog post comment area do not belong to the standard translation and are therefore not translated. But I cannot find the access to where that can be changed.

These are 1) "[NUMBER] thoughts on [POSTTITLE]" and 2) "Leave a Comment"

The content of the square brackets belongs dynamically to the respective blog post.

I think German is translated 100%, you should not need the filter to do custom translating.

Is there an “Update Translations” button in “Dashboard > Updates” in your admin area? If so, can you click it?

Let me know :)

Sorry for the late answer. I'm just continuing to work on the website.

There is no update option - it's written: All translations are up to date.

I'll just hide that now to solve issue 2). It's not a perfect solution, but it's faster than searching the origin of this issue.
