CRM-12135 Title of list of events page on front-end is not translated

bgm:

i investigated this and i think this is what is happening:

a. the title is being derived from the menu system, in this case it comes from: CRM/Event/xml/Menu/Event.xml

b. We do the right thing and send in the variable string to be translated

c. However in transifex, I cannot find the exact string "Current and Upcoming Events"

I suspect this is due to the language parser not extracting the title fields from the xml files. BGM: this might involve a change in how we extract strings etc.Not sure how big/small a task this is

Sebastien: For the short term, you can potentially use word replacements to get around this issue

The string is in menu.po, and is translated:
https://github.com/civicrm/l10n/blob/master/po/fr/menu.po
https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/civicrm/translate/#fr/menu/903524?q=Current%20and%20Upcoming

All menu titles are extracted from create-pot-files.sh (CRM//xml/Menu/.xml).

The string is used in two places: in the search criteria of the Event dashboard, and in the ical feed of events:

<path>civicrm/event/ical</path>
<title>Current and Upcoming Events</title>

I'm not familiar with this feature of Joomla, is it possible that it's an ical/rss import of events, and it needs to be translated in Joomla?

Debugged this online with lobo, and is related to ts() needing the gettext 'context', since these strings are in menu.po, which have an explicit context to avoid situations where a string in a page title may be translated differently than the same string in a page content.

see CRM/Core/I18n.php, function localizeTitles().

@ Sébastien PETIT: can you test / apply the patch locally to your installation?

The exact line is in civicrm/CRM/Core/I18n.php, function localizeTitles() :
