Untranslated app names in home screen

[Edke]

While in menu there are app names translated, in home screen while listing all apps, models and actions, app names are left untranslated.

It would be nice to have both menu and home screen app names translated.

This is strange, i just checked project where localisation is used and all apps in home screen are translated.
Also you can see by the template, that blocktrans is used - i copied this code from original django admin template.

Please test it if it is actually django suit fault, by temporary removing suit from INSTALLED_APPS

Those names in home screen comes from model Meta class verbose_name_plural property, are you sure you translated it properly? While in menu, you can override name if you use label property.

If it still doesn't work, please give me a screenshot, so we know we talk about same place and also definition of you model admin class Meta tag

Names from Meta's verbose_name_plural are for models. I'm talking about appname itself. For translating, I'm putting translated string into __init__.py of app, where django-admin's makemessages finds string and includes it into locales:

checkout/__init__.py:

 from django.utils.translation import ugettext as _

_('Checkout')

This way it works for menu but not for home page with listings of all apps and modules. Guess app name is not represented as {% trans '' %} tag in template.

It's a good thing i asked for a screenshot :)
Should be fixed. Use develop branch until stable release is out:

pip uninstall django-suit
pip install https://github.com/darklow/django-suit/tarball/develop

Sweet, hope this wont break anything to no one :-) Thank you for super quick fix, will for sure support app for usage!

[Edke]

Testing commit, but translation using blocktrans is not working even when you removed newline, still string not translated. On the contrary using simple {% trans app.name %} works.

[darklow]

Really strange, they should work identically. Anyways changed to {% trans app.name %}. Try now.

As you are saying, strange but this way it works. Confirmed.
