    Hi,
    I’m making a site in Swedish but I want to keep the backend in English.
    I am almost there but keep finding various words on the site in English that are embedded in the theme files such as:

    “read more”
    “view more”
    The dates that are diplayed on the posts
    The “share this” statement by the social icons.

    Is there a simple way to translate these parts of the theme without changing each template file?
    Is there a plugin that will do this WITHOUT changing the backend of the site to Swedish since I am sadly not fluent in Swedish (an understatement, to be sure)?

    Thanks for any advice you can give me on this.

    Thank you.
    That was so helpful!
    I just didn’t have the vocabulary to search for what I needed.
    After I read through the link you sent, I was able to google for a plugin
    that does it for me (I was concerned that I would have to re-edit files
    every time I updated WordPress with the original method).
    This plugin worked for me, in case anyone is interested.

    Again, I continue to be impressed with the versatility of this theme and
    the help I find in the Support Forum.
    Thank you so much.
