In this post i am writing a little howto to translate or use wordpress in bangla.

first of all you need to checkout latest language pack form meghdut site.

open your terminal and give the under given command (if you already installed subversion otherwise search google how to install subversion)

svn co http://svn.automattic.com/wordpress-i18n/bn_BD/trunk/messages/ .

this command will checkout latest language pack from subversion repository. or you can open http://svn.automattic.com/wordpress-i18n/bn_BD/trunk/messages/ in your browser and right click on bn.mo file and select “save link as”.

now you need to upload these files to your wordpress installed directory.

first make a folder called languages in wp-includes/ then upload these files to that language files.

or if you are maintaining you wordpress (that i always suggest) then enter to that language folder then execute this command

svn co http://svn.automattic.com/wordpress-i18n/bn_BD/trunk/messages/ .

it will download latest langugage pack from subversion repository. more over if the repository file updated just run svn up on languages folder, it will get latest update from repository.

now you need to configure your wordpress to use this new langugage files. so edit your wp-config.php file that you will get in the root folder of your wordpress directory.

replace define (‘WPLANG’, ”); with define (‘WPLANG’, ‘bn’);

save it , done

open your blog in any browser and see the magic
