Hello everyone,
I am trying to translate an application I made from french to
english. I followed the steps described in the documentation:
1. I added a simple {% trans "Bonjour" %} tag to my index template
(and before you ask, I did {% load i18n %})
2. I created a locale folder in the application folder
3. I ran make-messages.py -l en
4. I opened the locale/en/LC_MESSAGES/django.po and changed the msgstr
for "Good morning"
5. I ran compile-messages.py
6. I added (r'^i18n/', include('django.conf.urls.i18n')), to my
urls.py
7. I added (r'^lang/$', 'project.app.views.lang'), to my urls.py
8. I created a small function in views.py called lang(request) that
did a simple return render_to_response(). I did not use
RequestContext.
9. I copied the small template given in the documentation to change
language and I added the get_current_language and
get_available_languages at the top.
10. I added the LocaleMiddleware below SessionMiddleware in
settings.py
Now, when I go to /lang/, I see a dropdown list with all the
languages. Their name is in french (my LANGUAGE_CODE in settings.py
is "fr-ca"). I select english, press the submit button and I'm
returned to the index page. The string "Bonjour" is still there, it
has not been translated. If I go to /lang/ again, the names of the
languages are now in english.
Why are the Django strings correctly translated but not the ones in my
application? Have I forgotten anything?
Vincent.
