Internationalization improvements in 6.7 possible bug

[fullermetric]

In our functions.php we have this going on:

if (function_exists('add_theme_support')) {

load_theme_textdomain('html5blank', get_template_directory() . '/languages');

}

which used to work, but now generates a message in our debug.log

[23-Dec-2024 22:40:13 UTC] PHP Notice: Function _load_textdomain_just_in_time was called <strong>incorrectly</strong>. Translation loading for the <code>html5blank</code> domain was triggered too early. This is usually an indicator for some code in the plugin or theme running too early. Translations should be loaded at the <code>init</code> action or later. Please see <a href="​https://developer.wordpress.org/advanced-administration/debug/debug-wordpress/">Debugging in WordPress</a> for more information. (This message was added in version 6.7.0.) in /chroot/home/ab2bb14c/fullerfasteners.com/html/wp-includes/functions.php on line 6114

Have a look at this thread https://core.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/59127
and tell us if we are doing this correctly?

Thanks,
Fuller

Hi @fullermetric, Thank you for reporting this issue.

This is a known issue. I recommend going through this to get a better understanding (related) - #44937, #62723.

For now, you can ensure load_theme_textdomain() is called at or after the init hook.

In our functions.php we have this going on:

You should only run this code on the after_setup_theme hook, not directly.
