not all translatable elements found and subtitle does not change

When I use the "Import all terms from current theme" it ignores several elements that use '_e()'. It finds 'categories', but not 'archives'. I do not use widgets because they are too limiting, so I handcode my sidebar. xili-dictionary seems really concerned with categories, but we don't use them at all (preferring tags; so we have a header that says 'categories' but the links underneath are a tag cloud in list form).

Questions:

1) Why do some terms which need to be translated not show up with 'import terms from theme'?

1) What to do when the subtitle of the blog has been translated but only the english version appears for all languages? (This also affects 'Categories', which I translated but the the text stays stuck in English).

(I am using the latest versions of xili trinity).

Okay, I've figured out the problem with the terms from _e() not showing up in xili-dictionary: there can be no space between the first parenthesis and the term itself.

I had _e( 'archive', 'primitive' ) but it seems _e('archive', 'primitive') is all that works.

You have designed a great plugin here! I noticed most documentation comes from xili itself. Once I am done with my project I will write up a blog post about the process of using xili trinity for creating a multilingual blog.

Now if I could only get that silly tagline to work...

Ha!

Spoke too soon. I've gotten the tagline to work properly.

One of the problems I ran into was that I initially named one of my languages 'nederlands' in xili-language. Now I know that the name must be the ISO code in order for the whole thing to work properly.

Thanks for the great plugins!

Thanks for your contributions, your question and your self answers on dev.xiligroup.com forum... After a busy week, some notes:

You are right in the target of the free WP plugins... how to bring something in this area ?

- by donation - xili-language trilogy is used probably by around 1000 users but nobody donate.. :-(

- by ordering services - few but very professional webmasters (wordwide) involved in commercial websites ordered me half or more days for training about multilingual website

- by animating forum - now only to ask questions

- by adding some reviews or how to use on their own blogs or technical site (or WP repository) : less than fingers of hand...

It is the price of the success... and I like to explain that when I go in a WordCamp...
