I am using this and I have asked people to test translations. So for French and Simplified Chinese are fine. Japanese is as good as it gets. Stop by and have a look, it also adds nice color to your blog. |

I would like to experience the quality of translation before I buy this product. Is there a way to offer this product on a trial. If not, atleast provide me with many links to people who bought this so I can look at their sites. |

[...] The map clearly shows the global nature of blogging. Yes, English may be one of the most common languages but you shouldn’t take for granted that all your potential readers can speak it fluently. Plus, you can’t beat offering all of your pages in a reader’s mother tongue, particularly when it is as easy as installing the Translator plugin which takes one minute. [...] |

[...] Translator Authors Description: Translates blog dynamically (from English) to eight languages - German sample, Spanish sample, French sample, Italian sample, Portuguese sample, Japanese sample, Korean sample, Chinese (simplified) sample. The translated pages can be bookmarked for future use. Note: It assumes the base language of the blog as English. It requires curl libraries on your system and available from PHP. Internally Google Translator services are used. My overview: This plugin increases your visibility around the globe since it’s fast and very tidy. Install it and make sure the buttons are in a prominent place like mine are at the top of my sidebar. [...] |

[...] Angsuman’s Translator Plugin Pro replaces and supercedes the original popular Translator Plugin for WordPress and subsequent revisions. After the initial release and wide acceptance of our WordPress Translator plugin, we have spent enormous amount of time working out the kinks of different translator engines. We pre-process and post-process the translated data to ensure as closeness as possible to the original page content and layout. We have tried to provide you the best automatic machine translation within the limits of today’s machine translation technology and in many cases we have overcome and improved upon the translated output. We use multiple third-party translation services to provide you with the best possible machine translation. [...] |

Hey Angsuman, I have just implemented into one of the WordPress Blog, and I must really comment that it is a fantastic plugin! Though the actual translation is through Google, but I guess for simplicity, that is good enough. Thanks! |
