   Hello everybody,
   I still have troubles to finalize everything for my brand new plugin, and I hope you could help me. I have 3 questions :

   • So far, I've got a .pot file and my first .po file (in french). But when I try to use msgfmt, I got the following reply:
     

     0 translated messages, 19 untranslated messages.

     My .mo is created, but inside there is just the beginning of the file .po and no messages translated. Could you tell me why?

   • When the first point will be solved, where should I put my .mo file? I would like to create a "languages" folder in my plugin folder and drop everything there, but where do I have to tell my plugin that it's here?
   • I didn-t get the point about the text domain. So far all my "__()" or "_e()" don't contain the text domain. Is it mandatory? Should I have to add it?

   Thank you so much for your answer, I would be really appreciated !!

   Hmm, good question.

   Have you checked out the page referenced as "additional information" by the Codex?
   http://urbangiraffe.com/articles/localizing-wordpress-themes-and-plugins/
   (Codex Page: http://codex.wordpress.org/I18n_for_WordPress_Developers )

   Sorry if this is not relevant, I am simply not an expert in this field :-)

   I hope it is useful though; internationalization is a wonderful thing.

   Thanks for your answer... And sorry for mine late.

   I used POEdit to deal with my .po and .mo files now... But my I18N still doesn't work.

   I just pos a new explanation here... If you could have a look, it would be greatly appreciated !!

   Cheers,

   Nixar
