I have django app which uses i18n. Everything works fine except few string. Example: I have form with code:

tos_accept = forms.BooleanField(label=u'%s <a href="/terms">%s</a>'%(_('I accept'),_('ToS')),error_messages={'required':_('Acceptance required')})

I have generated translation (using makemessages), then I have it translated. After all, I run the compilemessages command and restart sever. Unlucky, "ToS" and "I accept" are not being translated to other language. Could you tell me why?

did you import `_` as `ugettext` or `ugettext_lazy`? – Leistungsabfall Sep 18 '14 at 17:30
I have used ugettext_lazy – dease Sep 18 '14 at 17:34
what happens if you change it to `ugettext`? Probably worth a try. – Leistungsabfall Sep 18 '14 at 17:35
Do 'I accept' and 'ToS' have a `fuzzy`-tag in your `.po`-file? – Leistungsabfall Sep 18 '14 at 17:52
I've checked it, there is no fuzzy-tag – dease Sep 18 '14 at 17:53
Hmm I'm running out of ideas... what happens if you use named-string interpolation: `label=u'%(accept)s %(tos)s') % {'accept': _('I accept'), 'tos': _('ToS')}` – Leistungsabfall Sep 18 '14 at 18:23
Thank yout for your suggestion, but it didn't help :( – dease Sep 18 '14 at 18:47
