Although the manual says that the Kalium theme comes with a set of translation files, and more specifically dutch, I can't find those translation files under wp-content/themes/kalium/languages/ ... I do find a kalium.pot file there, so I've already translated that pot file with Poedit, but if I place the resulting po and mo files in the 2 places they should/could go, nothing happens. I've tried to put them as nl_NL.po and nl_NL.mo in the same place the pot file is residing, and also tried to rename them as kalium-nl_NL.po en kalium-nl_NL.mo, and placed those 2 files in wp-content/languages/themes (that's where the twentytwenty translation files are).
So, is it correct that the version 3 of Kalium no longer comes with the translation files?
and secondly, how to name them and where to put them?
And third, when translating the supplied kalium.pot file, I'm under the impression that it only contains a part of the translation strings of the whole theme!
As we wrote in this article (Translation introduction) you just need to set your Wordpress language to Dutch and then go to Wordpress update area, click Check Again button 2-3 times and new updates for Kalium Dutch will appear in the bottom.
The Wordpress language was set to Dutch from the beginning (before I've installed the Kalium theme)! Do you want me to put it back to English, and then back to Dutch ?
Secondly, I don't understand what you mean with the "Wordpress update area". Where can that be found?

Hi Bruno,
Can you please send me your Wordpress credentials, because I need to login to your site to do what I wrote in my last reply.
To include your credentials click Insert Credentials button in editor toolbar (see how)so your reply will be private.
Thanks!
Hi Bruno,
You just needed to do this (see video), now your theme strings are in your language.
Thanks!
