   can’t find where to turn it off – 8.1.6. Where to find it? Already went through
   all the settings twice

 * Hi [@resettt](https://wordpress.org/support/users/resettt/), thanks for reaching
   out! Please head over to **WordPress Dashboard > Security > Settings > Advanced
   > WordPress Tweaks** and confirm if the **Disable File Editor** option is enabled.
   If so, please uncheck it, save the settings, and check if the theme editor is
   showing in your **Appearance** tab.
 * Looking forward to hearing from you.

 * Thanks for the reply. I realized why I could not find this setting (I knew about
   it in the early version of the interface). The item “Advanced >” is translated
   into Russian as “Mixed” 🙂 . I think it should be “Расширенные” or”Дополнительные”

 * Hi [@resettt](https://wordpress.org/support/users/resettt/),
 * Since the plugin translations are created by the community you can also contribute
   to [the Russian translation](https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/better-wp-security/stable/ru/default/)
   of the iTSec plugin.
 * I noticed “… in the Advanced section.” is currently translated (twice) as:
 * > … в разделе Дополнительно.
 * But (according to Google translate) “Дополнительно” seems to be the translation
   for “Additionally”. Anyway filter for “Advanced” and tick the **Case-sensitive
   search** checkbox. That way you can have a look at all the translation strings
   that include the word “Advanced”. Then, for consistency, submit your translation
   for all translation strings that include the word “Advanced”.
