    <p>I have a Django application with a model called <code>Topic</code>. I want to translate the plural of this model in the Django admin (see the red ellipse in the screenshot below).</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/OYXHt.png" alt="Screenshot"></p> <p>In order to do this, I did following:</p> <p>1) Added a <em>Meta</em> class to the model in <em>models.py</em>:</p> <pre><code>from django.utils.translation import ugettext_lazy as _ class Topic(models.Model): title = models.CharField(max_length=140) def __unicode__(self): return self.title class Meta: verbose_name = _('topic') verbose_name_plural = _('topics') </code></pre> <p>2) Ran <code>django-admin.py makemessages -l ru-RU</code>, which generated a file <code>locale/ru/django.po</code>.</p> <p>3) Added translations to the <code>django.po</code> file:</p> <pre><code>msgid "topic" msgstr "Тема" msgid "topics" msgstr "Темы" </code></pre> <p>4) Ran <code>django-admin.py compilemessages</code>.</p> <p>5) Changed <code>settings.py</code> so that there are following settings there:</p> <pre><code>LANGUAGE_CODE = 'ru-RU' ugettext = lambda s: s LANGUAGES = ( ('ru-RU', ugettext('Russian')), ) MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = ( 'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware', 'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware', 'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware', 'django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware', 'django.middleware.locale.LocaleMiddleware', ) USE_I18N = True USE_L10N = True </code></pre> <p>But it still doesn't work (the marked lettering in the admin still appears in English, not in Russian).</p> <p>What can I do in order to fix this?</p> <p><strong>Update 1 (28.09.2013 13:26):</strong> Maybe something is wrong with my directory structure. Here it is:</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/YKZ7U.png" alt="Directory structure"></p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
