Display localised plugin name/description for inactive plugins

[johnbillion]

Fairly sure that we can display localised plugin data (name, description, etc) on the Plugins screen for inactive plugins if the plugin includes a Text Domain and a Domain Path header.

Patch coming up at some point.

Fairly sure we already do?

Replying to nacin:

Only for active plugins currently.

Then it sounds like a bug, as although I haven't tested it, there's no switch in the code to only translate it for active plugins.

It might be that the load_plugin_textdomain() calls in wp-admin/includes/plugin.php isn't the same as what the plugin would be doing, resulting in it translating when the plugin is active, but not when it's inactive?

False alarm. My test plugin had an erroneous Domain Path header. Translations are shown for all plugins regardless of activation status.
