+# Phase 11 Plan 02: Theme Translation Summary
+
+Scanned 842 translatable strings from Quotify theme into database with verified translation workflow.
+
+## Performance
+
+- **Duration:** 2 min
+- **Started:** 2026-01-16T12:06:44Z
+- **Completed:** 2026-01-16T12:08:24Z
+- **Tasks:** 3
+- **Files modified:** 1
+
+## Accomplishments
+
+- Created theme translate.yaml configuration file
+- Scanned 842 unique translatable strings from theme/plugin templates
+- Verified complete translation workflow (scan, locales, export, trans)
+
+## Task Commits
+
+1. **Task 1: Create theme translate.yaml configuration** - `16aa107` (chore - submodule), `524cc4e` (chore - main)
+2. **Task 2: Run theme translation scan** - No commit (database operation)
+3. **Task 3: Verify translation workflow end-to-end** - No commit (verification only)
+
+## Files Created/Modified
+
+- `themes/quotify/config/translate.yaml` - Theme translation configuration file documenting workflow options
+
+## Translation Workflow Verified
+
+| Check | Result |
+|-------|--------|
+| translate.yaml exists | PASS |
+| translate:scan completed | PASS |
+| Messages scanned | 842 |
+| Locale::listEnabled() | en, pl, de |
+| MessageExport::getColumns() | code, default, en, pl, de |
+| Message::trans('Home') | Returns 'Home' |
+
+## Decisions Made
+
+- **Database-based translation management**: Using Backend Messages UI for translation workflow instead of static YAML files. Theme translate.yaml serves as documentation for future static translation options if needed.
+
+## Deviations from Plan
+
+None - plan executed exactly as written.
+
+## Issues Encountered
+
+None.
+
+## Next Phase Readiness
+
+Phase 11 Plan 03 (Backend Messages Translation) can proceed:
+- 842 messages ready for translation in database
+- All 3 locales (en, pl, de) available
+- Export columns configured for all locales
+- Translation workflow verified working end-to-end
