Apat na taon matapos pagpunta sa WordPress pinaglagakan, at 189,795 Nagda-download mamaya, Transposh ay aalis ang wordpress.org pinaglagakan.
Tila, lahat ng oras na ito ang aming widget ay may link sa aming site, at kahit na ito ay posible na alisin ito, ito ay laban sa mga wordpress.org alituntunin.
Ito ay isang gabay na hindi natin matatanggap, Naniniwala tayo na marapat tayong makautang sa ating gawain. Hindi mas mababa sa Twitter, Facebook, o anumang iba pang kilalang kumpanya na nagbibigay ng third party mga widget out doon.
Din namin hindi maaaring tanggapin ang katotohanan na ang aming mga plugin ay tatanggalin nang walang abiso, at walang anumang oras upang gumawa ng mga pagbabago, kanan mula sa Blue.
Hindi namin maaaring tanggapin ang mga mensahe na namin mag-post sa ang plugin forum ay tatanggalin lamang dahil ang mga moderator hindi tulad ng mga ito, o magpasiya na sila ay laban sa mga patakaran na nilikha nila sa kanilang sarili. Hindi nila gustong pag-isipang muli ang mga patakaran.
Sila ay malaya sa pagpili ng anumang desisyon na gusto nila, Pagkatapos ng lahat, ang kanilang hosting at kanilang mga tuntunin. Hindi maaaring ipagwalang-bahala na, sa kabutihang-palad wala sapat tayong tanggapin ang mga ito.
Kung gusto mong magreklamo, Huwag magreklamo dito, subukan at magrereklamo sa mga forum, Pero ang hula ko ay na imo-moderate mo, WordPress.org ay hindi isang demokrasya, ni hindi ito isang GPL sumusunod site, lahat doon ay kailangang maging malaya, sa gastos, at sa pananalita, iyan ang dahilan kung bakit nakuha ka tonelada ng pilay plugins na naglilingkod lamang bilang promosyon sa pro version. Ito ay din ang iminungkahi nila na gawin natin sa Transposh. At hindi natin gusto ang mga ito, hindi sa isang bit.
Kung may susunod na bersyon ay kailanman maa-upload sa ang site na ito, itong isang pilay na bersyon, (nang walang anumang mga link dito, para sigurado) at hindi ang higit na kapaki-pakinabang na mga bersyon. Ang pinakahuling bersyon (di-lumpo) ay nagsilbi na dito mismo sa mga mag-download ng mga pahina. Kung saan ngayon kailangan nating magdagdag ng isang mekanismo na update.
Huwag mag-atubiling upang talakayin ang mga ito sa mga komento dito.
Kaya mahabang wordpress.org, at salamat sa lahat ng mga isda.
that’s unfair. You was a reason why i came to wordpress. I’m really disappointed in wordpress moderators. You deserves more just a one tiny link.
Pati, I hope you are able to keep it running.
Maybe you can start a campaign to tell WordPress we all are not so happy. I started using WP mainly because of your plugin.. it’s a huge advantage for SEO & links on Google. I’ve been a webmaster for 17 yrs and to get me to stop using Dreamweaver & switch to WP.. it was because of Transposh. 🙂
Thanks for the kind words, you can take this to the wordpress forums, and let the moderators know, but I don’t believe this will help much.
I guess the non wordpress solution will be coming up much faster now.
Wow that’s so sad, where can we complain??
You may complain on the wordpress forums, but I don’t think anyone will listen.
Well this is really bad news. I didn’t think the WordPress team treated plugin developers like this. They need to reconsider their actions. Like you said, the link can be removed and that could be done for a long time now. What is the problem? Your points are more than valid and I have used your plugin on a lot of my sites, which has brought me a lot of extra traffic as well as increased the sites footprint in Google. I back you guys in this.
Well that is just horrible. I don’t get what the big deal is. I’m glad you are still offering the plug in as I use it on a few websites.
WordPress is terrible,the only thing that make wordpress good is the community of developer like you guy’s,who put a lot of effort for no money and very little recognition.You guy did terrific job with this plugin and hope you will continue to do so even after that.Best of luck
Agree with Francois. WordPress is terrible without developers like you.
i think that this wordpress rule is for prevent the google penguin penality and save this site from penalty.
An interesting idea, but I thing we are quite able to handle google without wordpress.org patronization, and also – it is allowed to have a link on your widgets, ask facebook, Twitter, sharethis(quickest page to rank 10), and many others
I am so sorry to hear I have been using your plugin for years not and I love it….
I hope you keep maintaining it.
Salamat muli
I would like to tell you that I completely support your decision 🙂
Keep on rocking dudes 😉
For the record, you’re perfectly well allowed to have the link in your widget. The rules on WordPress.org only state that the link must be an opt-in link, not an opt-out one.
You’re welcome to have your plugin on WordPress.org when you decide that you want to abide by that particular rule.
I am ok with the situation as it is now. I did use to have a “proudly powered by wordpress” on my pages, which accidentally comes with the theme I have installed (and I think the default themes has it too, not opt-in). This is no longer the case, because I am much less proud of that.
If this rule will be reconsidered (you can read a few users comments here, about expecting this, being ok with this, singling out, atbp.) I will reconsider.
I also strongly believe that closing a plugin with something that has been there for 4 taon, which is not a gaping security hole is the wrong action. Only a month ago I was a bit offline, and would probably have not been able to handle this for a good while. I do suggest that you take your time to reconsider said policy (give a notice, some reasonable timeframe, whatever). This was never such a critical issue, that required the use of such force.
Gayunman, thanks for your willingness, and your time, hope we’ll meet in the future on better terms.
(You’re welcome to have your plugin on WordPress.org when you decide that you want to abide by that particular rule.)
thanks Otto to be there and clarify
Ofer that good news We love your(our) plugin
Transposh must be alive
Hello, I just wanted to say thank you very much for transposh plugin, it’s an excellent tool, I have downloaded it from your site, and I am proudly displaying your link.
I can’t understand why you have been singled out, as many plugins have links to their site from them, there is nothing wrong with this as it is a free plugin, so you should at least get a link from it.
Wolfgang
Hi
Salamat para sa iyong trabaho – I really enjoy your plugin, and I hope you will be back on WordPress soon. In the meantime, how do I update to the full version? (I need other widgets than the default) Should I uninstall the WP plugin, and download+install the plugin from your download section? Or will that erase all of my current translations?
Pinakamahusay na,
Niels
Hi,
This will not erase your translations, the way you suggested will work. There is another way though
1. Upgrade from wordpress.org to version 0.9.3
2. Go to the settings and check “upgrade to the full version”
3. Check for upgrades again (you might have to force this)
4. Upgrade to the full version (currently 0.9.3.1)
Good luck
Thank you so much – I used your last suggestion, and it worked great!
I accidentally upgraded to 0.9.3 via wordpress repository, but now missing flags. So uninstalled and downloaded version from your site. Plugin will not installed, it says no valid plugins found. Now I am missing your translation tool from our site.
Mangyaring tumulong….
Salamat
Marc
Will check this, Gayunman, please read my other comment on how to upgrade from the repository.
Hi, thanks for your reply. When I checked back at your download page I saw the 0.9.3.1 link. I had to delete the files from 0.9.3 and then install 0.9.3.1. It is working fine now, with flags restored. Thank you so much, and I am sorry for the situation with WordPress.
Our website spreads the Word of God around the world, and I want you to know that your translation engine is integral to souls being saved.
God Bless you!
Marc
wordpress can’t be an multi language cms without transposh! there are many translation plugins for wordpress but all of them are useless 😀 I’m so happy for using transposh and helping for persian language support. 🙂
Hey Ofer, its you know who 🙂
Just to let you know that my issue was fixed when I reuploaded the fixed version you put on the server back then, not sure how or why, but it fixed it.
Now I see what you meant by your plugin being removed from WordPress, really sad, I really think both parties should settle and meet half way on this misunderstanding, for everyone’s sake.
I just upgraded to the latest version, so far so good, will monitor the stats and traffic hoping the previous issue wont resurface.
Thank you for keeping Transposh alive.
Happy to hear your problem is gone, wishing you luck in the future 🙂
Hi Ofer
Thank you very much for the Transposh plug-in. The WordPress rule is not fair. I’m totally on your side. Upgraded to the full version and proudly display “translated by Transposh” link.
Your plug-in is the most convenient to use.
is the plugin still working on word press website’s who already installed the plugin, you may could provide a download link from an un official repo…?!
The download on the wordpress repository leads here, you can check the download full version, and do an upgrade, alternatively you may visit the download page here.
Good luck
Downloading update from http://svc.transposh.org/transposh.latest.zip…
Download failed. Forbidden
Something on your server is probably blocking this, please try downloading manually and see that you are able to access the file
I agree. WordPress Staffers, as far as i’ve realized, are really doing a very bad job.
They delete your forum replies just because they want to be the ‘First’ to reply or decide that your answers aren’t complete (i could give you 2 names, but i’d prefer not) and want to offer their personal paid services by linking to their professional profiles (yes..). This is the only black side of WordPress, and hope this will be changed..
Know what you mean about broken plugins promoting pro versions. One kindly word for it – pathetic.
Will favorite your site. Will keep track. Fantastic Translator.
After your translator all the rest aren’t even 2nd best.
Thanks for your kind words
The amount of work that you guys have put into this plug-in is astounding.
I do work for non-profit healthcare organizations and I cannot tell you how much your plug-in has helped us communicate with our hispanic population.
Just to go in and add our own translations is fantastic.
Bravo my friends… it’s just too bad how WP has made it difficult for you to promote yourself.
I will be recommending you, para sigurado. Word of mouth is sometimes the best promotion.
Please don’t leave this field and keep Transposh alive.
If you want we can talk about making it profitable and I will help you with ideas regarding that.
You don’t need WordPress website to promote your work.
Keep optimism UP and let us help you.
Thanks for outstanding work and making your plugin one of the best I’ve seen since … ever.
Bogdan
Please.. don’t stop!
I’ll gladly pay to keep support on it.
Uy, I LOVE your comments on the WP.org site where your plugin got a one star rating. Your passion for what you do is reflected in these comments. Kepp @ it.
A New Fan 🙂
The mods at wordpress should really reconsider this travesty of reasoning. As you point out… EVERY share button is a link to another’s site. The facebook plugins define such… HOW DARE YOU TRY TO UNITE THE WORLD OUTSIDE OF GOOGLE TRANSLATING EVERYPAGE!!!
walang

:O :O :O :O :O
Guys “wonderful job!” I love your plugin and I love your attitude for standing up to what is right!
Wordpress would not be wordpress without awesome plugins like yours. Like you said Facebook, Linked In, Twitter, Google…they all get to keep link back why not you?
I am 100% behind you, I display your plugin and I display your link! Credit deserves to be given where credit is due. You were nice enough to let so many people use your plugin and you deserve every bit for it! It’s amazes me that the people at wordpress can’t appreciate the hard work that goes into something like this. You would think of all the people, they would understand that most. After all, WordPress is benefiting from your work, all the WordPress users are benefiting from your work, kaya…why shouldn’t you? I will proudly keep your plugin on my site with the link back! And I will tell all my students to do the same. You are more deserving. Long live democracy!!!! 🙂
Totally agree with all you say, The Bee! I love Transposh’s attitude too …and I definitely love this brilliant plugin which I’ve only just installed and it works beautifully!
Btw, Transposh, I couldn’t see any donation paypal button anywhere?? I think you need one 🙂 …and thanks so much for this beautiful plugin!
thats unfair. this plugin was the best for me am gnna keep using it anyway u guys dont need wordpress, and u right they should appreiate ur work with them and warn u before they do that, thats really bad
Well this sucks. I really like this plug-in! For a company looking to expand into Latin America, Transposh became a very important part of the plan. I would gladly pay for it!
Very disappointing, WordPress!!!
