Well, this has been a busy year for me personally. I was unable to release new versions of Transposh in the needed frequency, and changes that happened in the wordpress framework has caused parts of the plugin to malfunction.
I will be updating the plugin soon. As there are several issues that are currently bothering users that have upgraded to a more recent wordpress. The first being a deprecation of old jQuery functions, causing the lazy loader used by the plugin not to function properly. This will probably get fixed by either replacing the lazy loader or canceling this feature. The arguments are divided between the different approaches. When Transposh was conceived, loading a useless script of 100k seemed a bit much, but the internet has since progressed in speed. And I am not really sure if people even bother to optimize their sites any more. The lazy loaders for jQuery which support CSS files are also rather rare, and nothing new has been released for a few years.
The second major issue was the usage of jQueryUI as the dialog platform that the plugin relies on. jQueryUI development has also been extremely quiet for the last few years. And I was unable to find a suitable dialog alternative. The need to change approach completely or write some dialog component of my own is another very large task. I will probably just make it work again. But this quick-glue solution will have to change.
I want to thank everyone who has been supportive of the plugin and its development in the last decade. This is what makes me keep supporting the plugin.
See you with a new release that fixes most bugs soon. And I share the global hope that 2021 will be better than 2020.
Happy New Year!!!
I am in favor of making the plugin paid, to maintain the pants of the developer =)
I and thousands of other users would be happy with a one-time payment with a lifetime license.
+1 on a paid/premium version.
Thanks for this, and good to hear you will be able to get to this.
You efforts are certainly appreciated. Invaluable tool for my website.
I’m also in favor of making Transposh a paid plugin on the range of 20-40$ per site (just don’t make it a yearly subscription please!). This is by far the best translation plugin out there… I’ve been looking for alternatives lately since I can’t fix the automatic translations due to the pop-up window not showing up, but the other plugins are simply not on the same level… Fix it soon please!
I imagine it may take some time before there is a new Transposh version. For me, these issues were fixed when using an older WordPress version. Using WP Downgrade plugin, and using wordpress v5.4.2 for now. Plugin here: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-downgrade/
I have the same problem as Mireia, I have done what you indicate, Jorrit, but I gone mad wordpress: Gutemberg the plugin has stopped working and the web was fatal error… In recovery mode I was unable to access and effectively wordpress Transposh worked well, but I had to undo everything and return to the starting point. After updating and deleting wordpress plugin WP Downgrade, the transposh translation editor has stopped working again, but at least the web works for me…
Any other idea?
By the way, I also accept a single payment. Thank you!!
The best translation plugin available. I’d be happy to pay
