Unable to get Django translation to work in select box

Question

I use the select box in the model, and when I display it in the template using {{object.get_FIELD_display}}, it always displays in one language .. even if it is translated into a po file.

Here is a simplified version of my code:

models.py

PRODUCT_WEIGHT_UNIT = ( ('to', _('ton')), ('li', _('pound')), ('vg', _(u'vgs³')), ) class ProduitVrac(models.Model): title = models.CharField(_("Title"), max_length=50) unit = models.CharField(max_length=2, choices=PRODUCT_WEIGHT_UNIT) 

template

 <ul> {% for object in object_list %} <li> <h2>{{ object.title }}</h2> {# The following will not be translated .. #} {{ object.get_unit_display }} </li> {% endfor %} </ul> 

Did I miss something?

Answer 1

Turns out I used gettext instead of ugettext_lazy .. it solved my problem.
