 * Hi,
 * I am trying to install previously build themes on my website (running on localhost)
   and I get the following error while doing so
 * ** Undefined variable: text_domain in C:\xampp\htdocs\wp_vs_1\wordpress\wp-content\
   themes\rockstart early daysV2\functions.php on line 23**
 * I am pretty new to wordpress and hence finding it difficult to find my way around.
   Any idea on how do I go about this.
 * Thanks in advance
    Saurabh

 * //Content for the left part of the front-page quick & dirty
    register_sidebar(
   array( ‘id’ => ‘front-page’, ** ‘name’ => __( ‘Front Page’, $text_domain ),  ‘
   description’ => __( ‘This sidebar is for the content on the frontpage’, $text_domain),‘
   before_widget’ => ‘<div class=”left-box”>’, ‘after_widget’ => ‘</div>’, ‘before_title’
   => ‘<h4>’, ‘after_title’ => ‘</h4>’, ) );
 * The above are lines 19-28 of my functions.php file. The error refers to the use
   of text_domain. But I have no idea what do i fix this.
    Can you help me on this.
 * Thank You

 * Ok so I resolved the error by replacing $text_domain by ‘text_domain’.
