Hello, thank you first for this great module. It adds great flexibility to my website.

I was wondering if it is currently possible to translate the Flag Messages at http://www.example.com/admin/build/flags/edit/wishlist
The Flag is named 'wishlist'. I would like to have these messages translated to show differently with different languages:
1) Flag link text: *
2) Unflag link text: *
I was unable to find this under Translate Interface section. I would appreciate any advice.
Thank you very much in advance!

I was unable to find this under Translate Interface section.

Each string you enter as an administrator is available in the Translate Interface section, but you first have to switch to a different language, then view a page that contains that message (such as trying to flag/unflag a piece of content). Afterwards, the string will be flagged as needing a translation and you can find it in the Translate Interface section.

Awesome, thanks quicksketch!

I didn't realize I had to switch to the other language for the string to be picked up for translation.
As per your explanation, once switching languages I found the string in Translate Interface and was successfully able to translate the string.

This advice I'm sure saved me a lot of 'what is going on' moments with other modules in the future as I work to create a multilingual site.
Thanks again

Hi quicksketch,

Your resolution to the same issue in Drupal 7 is not working for me.

Any clues on how to get translations working for Flag texts in Drupal 7?

Please don't reopen ancient issues, there's already #2798841: Flag configuration texts aren't translatable for this.
