Translation Support

[wilpig]

This is something that i've used in another project that makes the translation pretty easy. First add this as a function that every page will read.

function __($string){
    if(extension_loaded('gettext')){
        return _($string);
    }else{
        return $string;
    }
}

Next you'll encase any strings that you want translated by doing this:

__("Text to translate here")

That will invoke the gettext function and translate it if you have the capability and the translation files are available. Last you need the actual translations, crowd source it! http://www.getlocalization.com/ You can tie your github repo to them directly and it will update automatically when you commit new code. There is a little more to it but this is a suggestion. Nice work btw it gave me some insight as to which of my friends use my server that I was curious on.

It looks like this might be the way to go for a free project: https://poeditor.com/features/

1000 string limit, but I think we would still be fine with this.
