###Industris Elements
------------------------------
Customizer
=============
Industris theme comes with unique, creative and easy-to-use (WP customizer). You can change all options in one place!
###Setting logo, favicon, etc...
All options have full description so you can know what you are doing. Just click and save!
------------------------------
Translation
=========
###Tell WordPress which language file to use.
If you don’t use WordPress in your native language so far, you have to tell WordPress which language to use to activate the theme translation.
You can do this by editing the wp-config.php file (the file is located in the main directory of your WordPress files) and defining the WPLANG constant. You have to set your language code there, for example fr_FR for French translation.
ust add the line below to your wp-config.php or change it if it already exists:
`define ('WPLANG', 'fr_FR');`
###Using Loco Translate
[Loco Translate](https://wordpress.org/plugins/loco-translate/) is a plugin which you can use to translate the theme very easy. It’s available for free on wordpress.org
------------------------------
Child Theme
===========
Industris is fully child theme compatible. We have attached a basic child theme to the download package which contains the minimum of required files. If you are planing any code customisations we highly recommend to do this inside the child theme! Learn more about child themes [here](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes)
