Hi,
I'm inserting every msgid and in the msg series box, I update the msgstr for each language, editing each item. The question is that when I click on "Update en_US.mo" button or "Update en_US.po", nothing is included or updated.
What's wrong in my operation.
Your topic raises several questions:
- Why do you need to create translation files in en_US (it is the root language in WP. Are you unsatisfied with the provided english by WP ?)
- What is the other languages in your multilanguage website ? es_ES, fr_FR ?
- When creating translation files (po, mo) have error(s) message when done from tools and files sub-menu/screen of xili-dictionary ?

Hi Michel,
I have es_ES. en_US, fr_FR, de_DE and nl_NL languages. The fact is that xili Language works fine and all posts change language when appropiate. It's only when I use _e() function.
In my functions.php file I have the following:
load_theme_textdomain('textdomain', TEMPLATEPATH.'/languages/');
and once I click on "Update .po file" in any language, nothing is filled. No msgid & msgstr.
if you observe by example twentyten theme, you see
load_theme_textdomain( 'twentyten', get_template_directory() . '/languages' );
and translatable terms are displayed by functions like
_e( 'this sentence' , 'twentyten' );
here the text domain is 'twentyten' and po/mo files are in subfolder '/languages' of theme !
Hope that help you !
