Comments on: Vigilance 1.45 Released http://thethemefoundry.com/blog/vigilance-145-released/ Handcrafted WordPress themes & professional support Mon, 06 Feb 2012 15:51:03 +0000 hourly 1 By: Drew Strojny http://thethemefoundry.com/blog/vigilance-145-released/#comment-559 Drew Strojny Thu, 14 Jan 2010 22:18:55 +0000 http://themes.jestro.com/blog/?p=1207#comment-559 OK, I installed the localization plugin and everything worked well for me. After creating the /languages folder in either the parent or child theme I was able to test translating the .po files and I saw no errors. Here is where I think the problems are according to both your comments: 1. The theme may be missing text that hasn't been marked for translation. 2. Some of the strings use an improper textdomain. 3. Some of the strings may need to be more complete. It would be great if you could email me specific instances where these three problems exist, along with fixes for anything that falls into the third category. If I am missing something else please let me know. Either way, let's carry this on over email. I can get you guys setup on our bug tracking software so you can report specific problems. Thanks! OK,

I am planning on looking at this soon with the localization plugin nv1962 mentioned. If there are any specific cases you know of please send me an email (themes {at} jestro.com) detailing what needs to be changed/fixed. Thanks Leonardo, I appreciate the feedback.

As nv1962 points out, the messages that gettext extracts from the themes need to be more complete (not sentence fragments) for the translators to do a decent job.

As I've also <a href="http://wordpress.org/support/topic/340947" rel="nofollow">mentioned here</a>, there are several strings that cause problems either using or creating localization files (the .po and .mo files) and using that plugin will track that type of problems down for you. Not to mention that it's a fantastic tool to create localizations, but that's past the scope of the Vigilance development proper.
