``` I think is a bug because I follow the instructions in classicthesis-config.tex file and it doesn't work.

\addto\extrasspanish{% \renewcommand*{\figureautorefname}{Figura}% \renewcommand*{\tableautorefname}{Tabla}% \renewcommand*{\partautorefname}{Parte}% \renewcommand*{\chapterautorefname}{Capítulo}% \renewcommand*{\sectionautorefname}{Sección}% \renewcommand*{\subsectionautorefname}{Sección}% \renewcommand*{\subsubsectionautorefname}{Sección}% }% ```

``` Actually, you need these lines (as described in the babel manual): In -config.tex: \PassOptionsToPackage{spanish,es-lcroman}{babel}

In ClassicThesis.tex: \selectlanguage{spanish}

Works as shown in the attachment.

Please consider sending a postcard.

``` This solution is partial, because the biography is not recognize babel language, dates and others things are in English

I found a solution using the next bibliography style:

\bibliographystyle{babplain}

It is necessary to load the package:

\usepackage[spanish,fixlanguage]{babelbib} \selectbiblanguage{spanish}

Also I get some problems trying to change the default value of the \tablename , because in the index it does not change, I don't know way.

I put this at the beginning of the document body, and change everything in the output less in the index.

\renewcommand{\bibname}{Referencias} \renewcommand{\tablename}{Tabla}

I solved this, passing the "es-tabla" parameter to babel:

\PassOptionsToPackage{es-tabla,spanish,es-lcroman,english}{babel} \usepackage{babel}

NOTE: it is also necessary set spanish in the \documentclass ```

``` Thanks, Spanish seems to be a real challenge to get working with LaTeX. I'll put your hints in the manual. ```

Hello, 
I written my first formal document using Lyx (with classicthesis in Spanish) and I
applied the recommendation from Comment 4, and until two days ago everything works
ok, but today I changed something and now I have Figure instead of Figura, Contents
instead Contenido, List of Figures instead Lista de Figuras, and the list continue.

I restore my 5 days backup and the issue still present. I use another PC to check it
out too, and the output still bad.
I come here to find help to trace the configuration error using classicthesis.
I hope you can help me and kindly response with any kind of suggestions to check in
my environment or something that can affect the language of the specific title sections
mentioned above.

thank you

Luis
