Make your WordPress theme translatable

Using the power of .po files and this short code snippets, you can make your WordPress theme available in a wide variety of languages. This code have to be pasted in your functions.php file. The .po files should be located under your wp-content/themes/your-theme-name/languages directory.

// Make theme available for translation
// Translations can be filed in the /languages/ directory
load_theme_textdomain( 'your-theme', TEMPLATEPATH . '/languages' );

$locale = get_locale();
$locale_file = TEMPLATEPATH . "/languages/$locale.php";
if ( is_readable($locale_file) )
	require_once($locale_file);
