Django i18n checklist

i18n not working? Here's a handy checklist to run through:

• USE_I18N = True in settings.py?
• USE_L10N = True in settings.py?
• django.core.context_processors.i18n is in TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS?
• django.middleware.locale.LocaleMiddleware is in MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES?
• OR - if using django-cms: cms.middleware.multilingual.MultilingualURLMiddleware is in MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES?

• if using django-cms:cms.middleware.multilingual.MultilingualURLMiddleware is right below session middleware?

• {% load i18n %} is included in every template using translations? (even templates that inherit from other templates that load that tag must include it)

• {% trans %} is actually used to translate messages?

Message files (*.po) exist and can be found? Check:

• All LOCALE_PATHS in settings.py
• "locale" directory for each of the apps in INSTALLED_APPS
• Default base translations
