I am going to use Virtue to create a website in Spanish, and another website in Russian. My sites won’t be multilingual, it will just be one site completely in Russian and another one completely in Spanish.

I would like to know how translate some of the main words of the Virtue Premium Theme. Generic words like “Read More”, “Archives”, “Category”, “Recent Posts”, “Lates Posts” and a few more words. I have my own translators, so I can write the translations myself, or use an existing file. However, I don’t want to translate the Admin for the theme or for Word Press, as I want to keep it in English. With another theme I bought from another company, one of the theme options panel is “translate” and there I can select the words I want to translate, and just write the new word I want to replace from English to another language. Is there anything similar possible to do with Virtue? or using a plugin? I know that you offer the language files that I can translate, but I am wondering if is possible just to translate a few words in a simpler way, and also to make sure of having the admin back end language in English.

One thing that I see important to add to each page or post is the code: Lang ” ” with the new language, so that search engines know the new language of the pages or posts. How do I change that code for the whole theme?

Thank you for your help!
