Where are the language files?

No problem! WP should update those translations automatically, but sometimes they don't for some reason.
Absolutely, anyone can contribute and it's always hugely appreciated :)
Hello Tom
I see that the danish translation is at 95% - I love your theme and its annoying that I can't change the language into danish. How can I help with the last 3 awaiting parts?
EDIT: I've translated the last missing 9-10 pieces and its all done. How do we get it approved?

Thank you! What's your WordPress.org username? I'll request that you become an editor :)
You're welcome. Its "ewalddigital" :)
Thanks! Just made the request :)
Hey Tom
How about the premium translations? Are those done at wordpress.org aswell? Are they translated to danish? :)
Hi Michael,
Those are done using a program like Poedit. You'll find .pot files inside each add-on folder in the languages folder which can be used to translate the add-on.
Let me know if you need more info :)
I've translated and verified the translations on wordpress.org - the danish translation is now at 100% according to the dashboard. So its just waiting a few hours and it will be updated? :)
Awesome, thank you! Yes, the packages are rebuilt every 6 hours I believe :)
I really appreciate it!
Youre welcome :)
are there really only about 20 lines to translate in the premium .po?
I'm afraid not.. Each add-on folder has a languages folder inside of it.
Ahh okay, ill get them translated then. In the meantime, the main installation hasnt updated the language, even though its at 100% on wordpress.org :/
You might have to go to "Dashboard > Updates" and click the Update Translations button.
There aren't any updates available :/
That's very strange. What if you manually add the files (https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-themes/generatepress/language-packs) to the wp-content/languages/themes folder?
