String translations not showing on front-end

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

ardoH	Background of the issue: I'm trying to get the translations right on the site. Unfortunately, the string translations do not show up on the front-end. I've tried following multiple fix tutorials - increased the memory size, removed the strings, updated translations, updated plugins, etc. Nothing seems to work. Link to a page where the issue can be seen: hidden link Symptoms: String translations are not showing on the front-end. For example, under the product view, 'Only % left in stock.' is translated both under translation management and string translations but is not showing up on the front-end. Questions: Why are the string translations not showing on the front-end? What additional steps can I take to resolve this issue?
