Django translation catalog is empty

Question

Hello,

I have my locale in my project directory and have set the packages as such: js_info_dict = { 'packages': ('my_project',),

}

makemessages works well as i have a djangojs.po file with my gettext strings but no javascript string ever gets translated on the website and the catalog is always empty.

Thanks

Answer 1

i added my_project to INSTALLED APPS in settings.py and that seemed to do the trick
