How to translate

To translate OpenPanel to another language, for example Serbian:

1. Navigate to the OpenPanel directory using the "cd" command:

   cd /usr/local/panel
   

2. Initialize a new translations directory for your locale:

   pybabel init -i messages.pot -d translations -l sr
   

3. Enter the newly created locale directory and edit the messages.po file. For each msgid write the translation in the msgtr tag, for example:

   #: templates/base.html:237
   msgid "Websites"
   msgstr "Sajtovi"
   

4. After you are finished translating, you need to compile the edited .po file to .mo in order to be used by the panel:

   pybabel compile -d translations
   

Thats it, your new locale is added and ready to be used.
