I've got an app with the following translation settings: # Language code for this installation. All choices can be found here: # http://www.i18nguy.com/unicode/language-identifiers.html LANGUAGE_CODE = 'nl-BE'
gettext = lambda s: s LANGUAGES = ( ('en', gettext('English')), ('nl', gettext('Dutch')), ) MODELTRANSLATION_DEFAULT_LANGUAGE = 'nl' SITE_ID = 1 # If you set this to False, Django will make some optimizations so as not # to load the internationalization machinery. USE_I18N = True TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = ( "django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth", "django.core.context_processors.i18n", "django.core.context_processors.debug", "django.core.context_processors.media", "django.core.context_processors.static", "django.core.context_processors.tz", "django.contrib.messages.context_processors.messages" ) MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = ( 'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware', # i18n 'django.middleware.locale.LocaleMiddleware', 'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware', 'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware', 'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware', 'django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware', # Uncomment the next line for simple clickjacking protection: 'django.middleware.clickjacking.XFrameOptionsMiddleware', ) In my templates I have several {% trans ".." %} tags I run ./manage.py makemessages -l en processing language en Which runs just fine. The generated file located at project/locale/en/LC_MESSAGES/django.po starts with the following: # SOME DESCRIPTIVE TITLE. # Copyright (C) YEAR THE PACKAGE'S COPYRIGHT HOLDER # This file is distributed under the same license as the PACKAGE package. # FIRST AUTHOR <EMAIL@ADDRESS>, YEAR. # #, fuzzy msgid "" msgstr "" "Project-Id-Version: PACKAGE VERSION\n" "Report-Msgid-Bugs-To: \n" "POT-Creation-Date: 2012-11-16 05:39-0600\n" "PO-Revision-Date: YEAR-MO-DA HO:MI+ZONE\n" "Last-Translator: FULL NAME <EMAIL@ADDRESS>\n" "Language-Team: LANGUAGE <l...@li.org>\n" "Language: \n" "MIME-Version: 1.0\n" "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8\n" "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit\n" #: peltracom/settings.py:37 msgid "English" msgstr "" #: peltracom/settings.py:38 msgid "Dutch" msgstr "" #: qr_app/templates/product.html:14 msgid "Gemaakt van" msgstr "" #: qr_app/templates/product.html:15 msgid "Afkomstig uit" msgstr "" After editing the file and adding the correct translations I run: /manage.py compilemessages -L EN processing file django.po in /Volumes/DATA/http/peltracom/locale/en/LC_MESSAGES My base urls.py contains: urlpatterns += i18n_patterns('', url(r'', include('qr_app.urls')), ) But when I point my browser to /en/some-url everything within trans template tags is displayed in Dutch and not in english. I even tried setting the accept-language header to en which didn't help at all.
