WordPress Translator Plugin of The Future: Translation in 32 languages
By Angsuman Chakraborty, Gaea News NetworkWednesday, March 7, 2007
We are working on the new incarnation of a super exciting Translator Plugin. You can see it in action in our Job blog. It supports translation in 32 additional languages. Yep, it is not a typo.
It has a new intelligent caching engine, designed from ground-up, which will drastically reduce your server load and serve the pages super fast, without loading the translation engines. It intelligently reduces the number of requests and manages the load factor so you do not overburden the translation engines and also your server, thereby reducing your bandwidth and serving your users faster.
It has strong failover support built-in. In other words we try really really hard to translate each and every page in all the supported languages. Additionally it recognizes lower quality translations and automatically moves over to better quality translations as early as possible.
On the user interface front it sports a simple API to fully customize the display and flags. We are revamping the options page and simplifying it while providing more options to customize your plugin. It will very likely have a simple and advanced section.
There are lots of new exciting features which I will detail later.
What are you waiting for? You can purchase the plugin here and boost your site visitors now by as much as 400%, according to our customers. You will be upgraded for free when the new version releases.
We are also working on a version for non-WordPress blogs and websites. Stay tuned.
Note:
1. We will not provide all the languages displayed in the jobs blog. We will however add few language(s) to the 13 languages we currently support. Feel free to suggest your favorite language from the mix.
2. The version displayed in the jobs blog is currently under development, specifically on the options page. However most of the core functionality is done including the new caching engine. Preliminary QA testing will start next week. It should be available in April-May timeframe.

Wow that is a lot of languages. Maybe some of the people who use it could use a dentist because no one wants to look at someone if they have bad teeth. That would just be disgusting. |

We support Arabic to English in Translator Pro and Translator Gold. Have you tried them? |

I’m wondering how your plugin would react to translating my quotation website. Would it be as effective? |

I am considering it. In fact I am working with some entities on this issue. However unless I use a monthly fee based scheme I cannot justify the additional cost. |

If there is a price increase with “ATPP Gold”, will you consider licensing the translation services or purchasing a server-based translation engine from some of the more major companies? |

Thanks Michael. I very much appreciate your feedback. James, For several reasons: Hence we may release the full 32 languages to a limited audience only maybe as a different plugin, ATPP Gold or likewise. I am thinking about this. |

Why will you not be providing “all the languages displayed in the jobs blog”, especially when the title of this article contains “Translation in 32 languages” and the hook is “It supports translation in 32 additional languages”? |

First of all, congratulations on a great plugin. I’ve been using it for a month now and I’m very happy. I would request that you consider adding the feature of making translated RSS feeds available. |
