That "commenting-out" behavior is normal for strings that aren't in- use anymore. Which means, makemessages didn't find "Discussion Topics for Tribe". Your syntax looks fine, judging by the latest docs, so I can only think of two possible explanations: 1. There's a bug in makemessages' handling of the "-e=" parameter, -OR- 2. You ran makemessages with some of those options missing. #2 seems most likely. If you'd accidentally mis-typed the makemessages command once on a previous attempt, that would've caused some strings to be commented-out. I'm pretty sure that running makemessages again with the CORRECT options won't magically UN-comment those entries. Does your django.po file have a new entry for templates_pinax/tribes/ topics.html:11 "Discussion Topics for Tribe" that ISN'T commented out? (Sorry, I can't attempt to reproduce the behavior myself -- I'm still using 0.97 which predates the integration into manage.py AND the -e option =) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
