The translation files are under recipe-card/languages
You need to create a copy of the default (default.po) rename it as the english one but with the code for the language you want en_US in my case for example is es_ES, not sure what’s yours.
You need to edit the file with something like poedit that allows you to easily add the translations and it generates de .mo file, you then need to upload both files (.po and .mo) to the site.

Yes, it happened to me when I tried to change some css of some of the recipes classes…

I have the layout with right and left columns and I want it above the main column/content.
I tried below the header so I only had to change the header but that pushes down not only the middle main column but also the sides leaving white spaces above the side columns..

Yep, exactly, that’s the problem it is neither done with if !funtion not atached to hooks or filters so in fact I can’t redifine it, just have all thos templates call another funcion and stop calling that one.
I want to insert a widget area above the main content. I’ll try with maybe a before_loop hook? Would that work?

Either way I’ll have the same problem with any layout change because it is mostly done like that with direct calls to functions.

I know, what I meant is that if I override all the files there won’t be much point in making updates.

I could export the database but then database structure in the new wordpress version is different so I don’t think that’d work. This is a php scrpt that generates xml, I think now it actually comes bundled with wordpress and it doesn’t have to be added as a plugin.

Not sure this will help but I am trying to work out the differences in the database from one version to another and seems to me the wp_categories table has been more or less replaces by wp_terms although I think it is a little more complex than that since there are wp_term_relationships and wp_term_taxonomy so maybe it is something you have to work out with those three tables.
