Hello!
I'd like to try using the poEdit to create the pot files from a theme
file, but strings in theme files aren't enclosed in __() or _e(). So I
attempted to do it myself, resulting in being stuck with these kind of
strings:
<h2 class="title">Archive for <?php the_time('F jS, Y'); ?></h2>
I know it should be something like this:
<?php echo sprintf(__('Comments in moderation (%s)'),
number_format($numcomments) ); ?>
But could someone help me in this particular case? (the one above)
Regards, Lukas

I tried out poedit and it is surprisingly easy to use. I just pointed it to
the theme folder I wanted to translate (there was no potfile), set the
keywords (__, _e) and a minute later I could start to translate. The theme I
use (Sandbox) is now translated (partially) in Dutch (

Thanks

Perhaps if you tell us the platform you are using
(windows/macintosh/linux/...) the list can give you more specific info.
