translation problem for theme string

[arturo84]

i've translated the rc-3 pot in italian, i've a modified version of kakumei, i've seen on my theme a not translated string, like Welcome, %s or Tags (comma separated) and other string for the theme.

in the pot i've see the string for that string with the path for the kakukei theme and not for all the theme name, for example bb-templates/kakumei/logged-in.php (for the Welcome, %s string)

is possible make this string working with all the theme?

It's up to theme creators to add translatable strings, there isn't anything we can do about this.

Additionally, theme developers should be adding their own domain, so instead of...

__( 'Translate me.' )

They should use...

__( 'Translate me.', 'my-theme-name' )

And load that domain in the themes functions.php file...

bb_load_theme_textdomain( 'my-theme-name' )

The xx_XX.mo file would need to be in the theme folder.
