And awesome news about Hemsky!

No, if it was placeholders I wouldn't be annoyed. It was actually 2 or 3 sentences in english, and then the same 2 or 3 sentences run through google translate french. Hard coded and committed to the repository.

Hemsky re-signed!!

Are those placeholders, or was it really "Some english phrase"? In any case, clearly it's far better than t(). Because it is.

So in the theme of the project I'm working on, there's a relic bit of code that isn't even used anymore that looks like this: t('Comments');

The t() is a native Drupal translation function that takes the input "Comments" and translates it to the users current language. He doesn't really like it that way though, he wants it directly through the database of the CMS (which will just run it through t anyway)... fair enough, it can be done either way and both is technically acceptable.

So he creates a bug report for it.

Then he goes and adds to the theme himself.

if($language->language == "en"){
echo "Some english phrase";
}

if($language->language == "fr"){
echo "Some french phrase";
}
