Localization
Localization is the process of adapting a website into different linguistic and cultural contexts - involving much more than the simple translation of the text.
The default language is English “en-US” for Bold Reports On-Premise. Read the following documentation for more details.
Adding new localizations
Clone your own culture for the Bold Report Server and add it to the application anytime.
Adding localizations to the Bold Report On-premise
Copy your own culture messages.po file from the location where you have cloned from GitHub
Create a folder in the locale folder with {language code}-{country code} and paste the cloned messages.po file inside the newly created folder.
