   Been trying to get this to work all morning and have so far failed miserably:

   Using qtranslate (or any other multilanguage plugin, really), attachment titles will always render as <!--:de-->German title<--!--><!--:en-->English title<--!--> which, needless to say, looks ugly on any fb wall.

   So this is both a development and a support request. Could qtranslate compatability be added in the next release?

   And how can this be achieved in the current release?

   Changing

   $attachment['name'] = $post->post_title;

   to

   $attachment['name'] = __($post->post_title);

   in sfc-publish.php (this is the dev version 0.999) *should* have done the trick, but didn't.

   Any thoughts? :)

   You can't use __() and _e() around variable strings. Translation doesn't work that way.

   there's next to no documentation on these functions that I could find; I was of the opinion that _e() replaced echo(); and that __(); was used to parse strings to a function...

   pardon my ignorance, but pretty please with semicolons on top, include qtranslate compatibility in the 1.0 release :3

   Wait a minute.

   Are you saying if I pass a variable to _e() doesn't work and if a direct string works?

   Example:
   

   $title = "<!--:de-->German title<--!--><!--:en-->English title<--!-->";
   
     _e($title); //doesn't work
   
     _e("<!--:de-->German title<--!--><!--:en-->English title<--!-->"); //works

   How can I make this work?

   You can't make that work. I18N translation does not work that way.

   Only fixed strings should be passed to translation functions.

   there is the qtranslate's function!

   qtrans_useCurrentLanguageIfNotFoundUseDefaultLanguage($text)

   (Still, doesn't work for me in the WP-E-Commerce Cart Widget)
