Describe the bug
If we add a new line to the l() function like
$this->l(
'This is a test translation'
);
a function can have arguments with a single line with the PSR-2 standard.
Then,
It will not display in Module back-office translation page, see screenshot.
Why we need a new line?
Because if we want to fix 120 line PSR-2 issues sometimes it helps.

This is because of this regex which excluding \n newline string,

Hi @dheerajwebkul,
This issue should be fixed by this PR: https://github.com/PrestaShop/PrestaShop/pull/11345.
It is fixed in the next stable version 1.7.5.0.
Thanks to check & feedback.
For more details about the translation system in Prestashop, you can follow this link
Thanks!
@khouloudbelguith thanks,
But are you sure this fix for the third party module translations? because PrestaShop module translation and third-party module translation have a different way to translate.
@dheerajwebkul, public PrestaShop 1.7.x nightly builds are available! This way, it should be easier for anyone who wants to contribute to the project to work with a recent build. Also, it means that merged pull requests will be in a build the next day for testing.
So, you can check if this issue occurs with the last prestashop-core-nightly.
THanks!

Hi @dheerajwebkul,
Happy New Year, wish you all the best.
I did not manage to reproduce the issue with PS1.7.5.0, I tried with this module
translationbug.zip
It is fixed with this PR: https://github.com/PrestaShop/PrestaShop/pull/10735
Thanks to check & feedback.
Hello @khouloudbelguith
Your translatiobug module does not have condition to produce this issue.
Please upload this
module. where I have added $this->displayName translatable text with a new line and 'bla bla bla' with a new line. Now you can not see these text in the International->translation page while translating this module.
Thanks,
@khouloudbelguith
PR: #10735 is totally different with this issue.
Hi @dheerajwebkul,
Thanks for this clarifications.
I manage to reproduce the issue with PS1.7.5.0 & PS1.7.4.4.
When we have $this->l(' ') translatable text with a new line we will can not see these text in the International->translation page.
We will see how to fix it.
Thanks!
Hi @dheerajwebkul
This can be considered fixed as of 1.7.6.0 thanks to #13504, but keep in mind that you will have to update your module to opt-in to the new translator (read the Pull Request description)
