Hi,

I have some issues trying to translate my views titles and other contents.

I use Drupal 6.19, Views 3.0-alpha3, Internatianalization 1.17 and i18nviews 3.x-dev
My drupal's languages are french (default) and english

I created a view display page which title is "Actualités" (means "News").
When I search for "Actualités" in the translation interface I obtain two matches.
The first one is in text group "Views" and second in "Built-in interface". Each of them have "Actualités" in their original text but the first ask me for english translation and the other for french one.

I tried every possible combination but there is no difference, my front-end view title is always in french.

Does anyone have an idea to fix this ?

Thank you

3.x is not functional yet. See other issue.

@w.lorenzetti for #2
I am sorry but the only solution found was to turn back default language to english and configure french as a secondary language.

This is not correct. i18n supports a variable where you can enable default language translation.
We always develop in english while e.g presentation default is german and second public language is french.
Thus german needs to have translation enabled.

See my notes in the other issue, comment #19

Thank you very much for the advice miro but if this can fix the technical issue, another problem remains.
My users want their website to be "developped" in french because they do not speak english at all. They want to create the view they need then send strings to their translator to get the english version.

While this particular website is currently in production stage, I can not try to change this var but I will for the next time. I will try to get some free time to experiment some other cases with or without english enabled at all.

In my example, the administrator had set the display title as "Actualités" and want it to be translated in english as "News".

In the translation interface he got two rows :
- Views | Actualités | fr
- Built-in Interface | Actualités | fr

When trying to edit them he got following choices :
- Original text : "Actualités" - French : ""
- Original text : "Actualités" - English : ""

Every combination of french or english strings results the same thing : french one is always shown on the front office.
