翻译WP主题不起作用

Question

I have a theme and I want to translate some test from english to spanish. After edit the .po and .mo files I did the following:

1. Rename files to newsgrid-es_ES.mo and newsgrid-es_ES.po
2. Copied the files to directories /wp-content/themes/newsgrid/languages and /wp-content/languages (just in case)
3. Add this code to my functions.php file: $lang = TEMPLATE_PATH . '/languages'; load_theme_textdomain('newsgrid', $lang)

But text remains in english, what I did forget?

UPDATE

This is how translations look in my theme files:

<?php _e( 'This is somewhat embarrassing, isn&rsquo;t it?', 'siiimple' ); ?>
<?php wp_link_pages(array('before' => '<div class="page-links"><span class="page-links-title">' . __('Pages:', 'siiimple') . '</span>', 'after' => '</div>', 'link_before' => '<span>', 'link_after' => '</span>')); ?>

I changed files name in all places to siiimple-es_ES but still not working

Answer 1

Look at the documentation for _e and load_theme_textdomain. Your file name must be <LOCALE>.mo.

The second parameter passed to _e must be the textdomain, not the file name:

<?php _e( 'This is somewhat embarrassing, isn&rsquo;t it?', 'newsgrid' ); ?>
