Thank you for clarifying, I hope this will be crawled and help other googlers.
However, I'll like to point out that users like me can (WILL) get confused as we read on in the documentation, because we will reach the section called 'Using translations in your own projects' which is the most relevant to what we are trying to do. As you read on that section, it will say: """ Django looks for translations by following this algorithm: First, it looks for a locale directory in the application directory of the view that’s being called. If it finds a translation for the selected language, the translation will be installed. Next, it looks for a locale directory in the project directory. If it finds a translation, the translation will be installed. Finally, it checks the base translation in django/conf/locale. """ This tells me that what I'm trying to do is SUPPOSE to work which it doesn't, as you have pointed out 'Locale Restriction' in 'How to create language files' I propose that the documentation to be further clarified, like adding 'Locale Restriction' again to the 'Using translation in your own project' section. Should I submit a ticket or something?
