WP_Theme::load_textdomain()

Loads the theme’s textdomain.

Description

Translation files are not inherited from the parent theme. TODO: If this fails for the child theme, it should probably try to load the parent theme’s translations.

Return

(bool) True if the textdomain was successfully loaded or has already been loaded.<br> False if no textdomain was specified in the file headers, or if the domain could not be loaded.
