4\. Choose the **Sala** theme to edit.

5\. Click the **New language** link.

6\. Now you have to choose the language and the file location from the dropdown menus. As was mentioned previously, this action is required both for the localization of your website for any language or just changing the strings with your own ones.

7\. Finally, you should see a list with all the theme’s strings and you can start to change/translate strings:

* Search for the string that you want to change;
* Add your own value for the string;
* And click the **Save** button
