Title: Change the language of the CiviVolunteer component
ThreadText: # Change the language of the CiviVolunteer component
  
  (Asked by: username_0 on 2022-01-24)
  
  I have a clean installation of CiviCRM on Wordpress on a Bitnami AWS installation. Later I was able to change the language to Spanish MX of all CiviCRM but it has not changed the language of the CiviVolunteer component.
  
  I installed the [l10n and SQL Translation files](https://sourceforge.net/projects/civicrm/files/civicrm-stable/4.4.3/civicrm-4.4.3-l10n.tar.gz/download) but this doesn't work for CiviVolunteer. How can **I change the language of this component to Spanish MX**?

  Looking at the source code (e.g. the [settings part](https://github.com/civicrm/org.civicrm.volunteer/blob/master/settings/volunteer.setting.php)), CiviVolunteer is not translated, nor easily translatable (the text is hard coded).
  
  In order to make it translatable, some programmer needs to add the translation strings.

  There might not be a translation for it, but check out [l10nupdate](https://github.com/cividesk/com.cividesk.l10n.update) which helps you download translations for extensions.
  
  By the way the core translations you linked to in your question are very old. The newer ones are at <https://civicrm.org/download> - in the dropdown is a choice for the localization files.
