Hi,

I've copied the matrix theme and renamed the theme to e.g. mytheme.
Then I changed the theme.inc. And works fine. I did the layout, set the language to dutch (nl) and it's perfect, but...

I added a little extra text at the bottom of the album.tpl:
{g->text text="Slogan"}

and edited the nl.po file:

msgid "Slogan"
msgstr "dit is een test"

And I only see on the site: "slogan".

I also tried to make the nl.po file.

What am I doing wrong? (or am I missing)

Thanks!

You need to compile the corresponding .mo file.

Have a look at this documentation: http://codex.gallery2.org/index.php/Gallery2:Localization

I tried to create a translation - that is
mkdir po (cd, copy makefile)
make ru.po
edit ru.po in vim
make install (all ok, no warnings)
verify - ok, a file is created, world-readable

oops, doesn't help - Gallery still shows the original text :(

did a *.mo file get created by 'make install'?
does other russian text show ok? maybe select another language and switch back to russian.. also make sure to clear your browser cache.

Yes, thank. It noticed that it was working after I restarted apache and mysqld (for unrelated reasons).
Weird. Must be some caching somewhere indeed... But reinstalling the module itself did not help.

Ah, nevermind.
