Magento translation not working


I've three store views : default, de for German and fr for French.
I've translated all the files inside app\locale\en_US in above two languages.
I've placed the respective translated file inside de_DE app\locale\de_DE for german translation and fr_FR app\locale\fr_FR : french translation.
Cleared the cache, still the it's translation is not reflecting.


I tried manually deleting cache from var/cache (this solution), but, is still not working.

Solution

  • Step by step :

    1. Create two stores
    2. Select Language for each store
      • Admin -> System -> Configuration
      • Select Store on top left corner listbox (current configuration scope).
      • Click General on left side bar
      • Select your language from "Locale Options" section.

    Ps : Don't forget to save translated files with "UTF-8 Without BOM" option! ( if you aren't in China )
