In order to use another language for WordPress it is necessary to set the WP version to the required language and in configuration wp file - `wp-config.php` in the line `define('WPLANG', '');` write `define('WPLANG', 'ru_RU');`. If everything is done properly the admin panel will be in Russian. 2. Make sure that there are files `ru_RU.po` and `ru_RU.mo` in the plugin (the folder languages in the root of the plugin). 3.
