django - {% blocktrans %} {{rendered_variable}} {% endblocktrans %}

Question

django trans is not working for me in this case:

{% blocktrans %} {{sign}} {% endblocktrans %}

the {{sign}} are coming from views.py and are Sunsigns like:

'Capricorn'
'Aquarius' 
'Pisces' 
'Aries' 
'Taurus' 
'Gemini' 
'Cancer'
'Leo' 
'Virgo' 
'Libra' 
'Scorpio' 
'Sagittarius'

I added into .po file all their translations and did compilemessages but it is just not translating it. what am I doing wrong?

This quetion is unclear. So you want to translate the star signs? **How** it is not working? — Mikko Ohtamaa, Sep 11 '14 at 09:12

blocktrans is for translating the text around a variable, but it won't translate the variable itself.

This answer can be helpful for you. More info in docs.

I just did the translation in models.py like this:

_('Capricorn')
_('Aquarius') 
_('Pisces') 
_('Aries') 
_('Taurus') 
_('Gemini') 
_('Cancer')
_('Leo') 
_('Virgo') 
_('Libra') 
_('Scorpio') 
_('Sagittarius')

and in template just

{{sign}}

and it is working.
