[IMPLEMENTED] Templates need language files

ooh, no you do not need to declare language files inside the XML files,

i meant only having language strings for parameter names of parameters inside the XML files
e.g.
<field name="num_cols" type="text" default="3" label="THIS_IS_LANG_STRING" description="THIS_IS_LANG_STRING_DESC" />

about category / item edit form i meant that maybe it is problematic to load language strings this way, what about a "Language Override Tab" in Global parameters to place extra language strings or override existing ones?

In r1456,
I have improved loading of flexicontent template language files to
- load a single file for frontend category/item views,
- load all language files for various edit forms (e.g. category edit form, item edit form, content type edit form) this way the parameters of your custom templates will appear translated.
But note you should HAVE DIFFERENT LANGUAGE strings if names of parameters need to be different, because if a language string appears in 2 custom templates then the last file to load will take precedence.
e.g. language string "MYNOTE1" should not be in 2 language files UNLESS you want it to be the same ...
