artvdputte asked a question still unanswered after 7 months, probably because he posted it in the wrong forum, so would you allow me to post it here:
I have a string inside the t() function inside my page.tpl.php template:
print t('test string');
The string is displayed perfectly when I visit a page.
Now I'ld like to translate this string now using the "translate interface" page, but the string is not showing up there?What am I doing wrong?
I'm using drupal 7.12 and following "multilingual" modules are enabled:Content translation
Locale
ALL modules from multilingual-internationalization except contact translation and multilingual forum.Thanks for your help.
I have the same problem with Drupal 7.17 and the contributed Internationalization 7.x-1.7 module. Is it even possible to use t() in template files? If yes, how?

Not only is it possible, you
Not only is it possible, you are supposed to use text when outputting it in template files. So you are doing it right. That leads to the question as to why you are not seeing the strings in the translate interface. One possibility is that the string in question has not been outputted yet. Until a string is outputted (meaning it's been run through the t() function), it will not appear in the translate interface page. Have you visited the page (template) in question and viewed the text in English before visiting the translate interface page?
It works.
Thank you very much. It works. In fact, I had forgotten to write "print".
It didn't work immediately. I cleared the caches.
I had never thought it would have been so easy.

Note that you need to visit the page *when in a non-default language*. See http://drupal.org/node/1496740
Hi All,
Hi All,
First: Change your language from the language switcher block (In user-end).
Second: After that you check yoursite.com/admin/config/regional/translate/translate

Before the language switcher
Before the language switcher block will appear, you have to enable some detection methods. So...
1) Enable one or more detection methods at admin/config/regional/language/configure
2) Add the language switcher block to one of your pages and change your default language.
3) You should now see your strings at admin/config/regional/translate/translate
Actually, you do not need to
Actually, you do not need to add the language switcher block. This also works...
well, it is not solved, I
well, it is not solved, I discovered that sometimes it happen that the variable will not appear on translation interface.
to solver this you have to chnage the language on your frontend page and after that it will appear on "translation interface"
