Using localization, I've translated the value of the read more link into custom english (en-US) and dutch (nl). However, it seems this does not have any effect: the link is " read more »" whether I'm on an english page or a dutch page.

This patch solves the problem for 5.x-1.x-dev by translating the default and the modified messages.

I'm having the same issue with 6.x-3.x-dev version. I don't see why ed_readmore even requires a string to be shown as "read more" text in the first place. Why not take the string from drupal core?

Whish I could do the programming as I'd like to see this fixed for D6, too. Cheers.

Edit: I just noticed this is a fairly old bug! Almost 1,5 years old...

There is no bug: the "read more" text is a variable, you just need to add it to the list of multilingual variables.

To do that, add this to settings.php:

$conf['i18n_variables'] = array(
// 'site_name',
// 'site_slogan',
// 'site_mission',
'ed_readmore_text',
// 'site_footer',
// 'anonymous',
// 'menu_primary_menu',
// 'menu_secondary_menu',
);

Then you have to save the string in the module configuration page, one time for every language.
