For default this theme has [en] for english and [pt] for portuguese.

_data folder

On _data/lang/* is located the languages data files, with json synthax.

Each json data group indicate in each file constains the relevant data to section information. See sections.

To create your own translation, just duplicate a json file, rename it and translate the terms.

There is two folders:

• general where are located the general componentes, like header, footer, menu, language change, social links and blog elements.

Media files for posts

This folder contains the resources for posts, like images, documents, etc.

Warning

Be careful, in the theme root is located .htaccess file, this file contains a code that will either redirect access to 'pt' directory. In my case this is the address of the home page.
