Thread: Translation Script v2.18 Bugfixes

Hi! Thanks for the script again! I used 2.15 version without problems.
I have upload 2.18 version and get this:

Norwegian (lang/no/ ) and polish (lang/pl/ ) translation dont work now.

css background image layout minimal change so I have changed the background image web page.

I havent found any other problems by now.

Thanks for all your work,

A couple of high-priority projects have unfortunately delayed our efforts to improve the script to work better elsewhere.

The real difficulty is that the scripts internals are so complex that we can't easily bring new coders up to speed on how it works. They are as likely to break something as they are to fix something.

So, although I can hire a new PHP guy -- it wouldn't do a lot of good in the short-term.

How is the $65 script working out for you? Is it something you would recommend?

Actually ive coded my own, using the Google translate API so no ip bans or css/code issues. Also running alongside MySQL so no issues with disk space.

SUPER AWESOME!

Are you going to sell it or release it open source?

Currently it is only for vB.

It seems that CMS-based translation engines are a much easier solution architecturally, they avoid so many complexities that come with generic full-page translators.

Plus, the MySQL data storage is quite interesting!

Yeah, the db caches sentences between tags, rather than full pages, this also eludes the page limit cut off and that is why storage is low, the template etc is called via the normal cms methods.

OK that $65 script is not working! You can see the site and demo. See the source and you'll see there are google JS and CSS there. Its not good. Please don't buy it. I emailed the support 5 times and I'm yet to receive a reply. Will, please remove the recommendation in the "translation script alternatives". Its not working anymore!

does the google translate gagdet work to the same effect as this script? with increasing your rank on serps.

I don't think any translation tool will increase your ranking in the SERPS -- but they do enable you to rank for new terms (foreign language terms).

Agreed Will, please remove it, i cannot recommend it as you say i do.

I spoke with the guy but never got round to using it.
