 * Hello,
 * Im using Tablepress *version (1.5.1). Language is Serbian. On my website, words
   like “search”, “show”, “next” … are stil like that, even my settings are on Serbian.
   I have install Change DataTables strings and copy needed file. It seems that 
   everything is OK, except showing serbian words on page.
 * Thank you in advance,
    Dejan

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * Can you maybe try to extend the used Shortcode to
 *     ```
       [table id=123 datatables_locale="sr_RS" /]
       ```
   
 * where the `sr_RS` will use the default file that comes with TablePress? Otherwise,
   change this to what you used in your file.
 * Regards,
    Tobias

 * Thank you Tobias. This help me.
    Only, there is no “edit” word on language file
   🙂

 * Hi,
 * you mean the “Edit” below the table? Yes, that’s correct, this is not in the 
   language files (the regular plugin translation files, not the JavaScript ones),
   because it is the only word from these files on the frontend, and it would be
   bad for performance to load the translations just for this word.
    But I think
   that that’s not a problem, because only logged-in users who are allowed to edit
   the table will ever see this.

    Tobias
