    _e( string $text, string $domain = 'default' )

    In this function,the “$domain” is used to locate the multilingual file.(The file which is the translation of your theme.)
    In wp-include there is a function related to this var

    function load_theme_textdomain( $domain, $path = false ) {
$locale = apply_filters( 'theme_locale', get_locale(), $domain );
 
if ( ! $path )
$path = get_template_directory();
 
// Load the textdomain from the Theme provided location, or theme directory first
$mofile = "{$path}/{$locale}.mo";
if ( $loaded = load_textdomain($domain, $mofile) )
return $loaded;
 
// Else, load textdomain from the Language directory
$mofile = WP_LANG_DIR . "/themes/{$domain}-{$locale}.mo";
return load_textdomain($domain, $mofile);
}

    You can see $domain is used in this file.Actually it’s used to locate the .mo file.So you must may sure it share the same name with your theme folder name

    Important security note: _e() is not an escaping function. Since all output really needs to be escaped, consider using __() instead.

    For example, this is safe:
    echo esc_html( __( 'This is my translatable text' ) )

    But this might not be, because the output can get filtered and is not escaped close to where it is output:
    _e( 'This is my translatable text' )

You must log in before being able to contribute a note or feedback.
