    Hey,

    First of all many thanks for the awesomeness.

    Even when using translation .po / .mo files there are several strings that remain untranslated and that’s why:

    • You don’t specify in the .pot / .po files the base path, which should be . (dot) and source paths, which should be .. (double dot).</li
    • In your plugin core files some strings do not have text domain theme-my-login. For example class-theme-my-login.php. I assume native WP translations are supposed to work, but they do not (at least no in the front end).

    So the fixes are:

    • Embed the necessary paths in your .po / .pot files
    • Specify a text domain for all strings, no matter if they repeat the standard WP ones or not

    Anyway thanks for the great job.
