WEB-Translation – eTranslation Multilingual

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 100% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

At the current install trend, crossing 500+ in roughly 314 days.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from. A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

   The plugin’s idea is great. I mean it. So, congrats on this project.But– it has a long way to go. It has major bugs, meagre updates, and concerning exclusion of RTL support which affects many people in the EU. From the top of my head: – It lacks RTL capabilities.– It restricts users to the APIs of certain translations companies. This is not acceptable practice for such an app, especially the the companies contracted have untraditional and uncommon practices. By that I mean, you can’t just subscribe and get an API key like in Deepl or something. You probably have to first write an email, discuss quotas, etc. – It has a major bug whereby website navigation triggers language switch, surprising the user. Console shows no errors when this happens. – It has a major limitation whereby bulk translation in settings stops if the user leaves the page! The plugin has no capability to organise jobs.– It is extremely slow, and this is related to the “etranslation” API it is tied with. Current assessment: – Moneyless NGOs can use it, for sure. It’s better than nothing. Finally, no hard feelings please. I know it’s probably about money and politics and that the developers themselves are capable enough to deliver a greater product.

   In combination with the eTranslation service this is by far the best translation plugin I ever came across.It solves so many of the hassles I had with other plugins and on top it saves me over $30/mo.Thanks to the developers for the great work and the EU for the funding!There only was one little problem I had, when using the auto translation feature it would use 100% of my servers CPU for at least a minute per visitor call. But it was no big deal disabling the automatic translation and start the translation manually (both can be mad in the advanced tab).

   What’s the point of using a translation plugin if you cannot translate slugs? It is also surprising that in the documentation it is indicated that slugs can be translated when there is no option to do so in the plugin. It’s a shame because the plugin has a lot of potential and very interesting options. This topic was modified 1 year, 4 months ago by thejosetree.

   Congratulations to this project team.This makes a lot of other expensive multi-language plugins mad (for sure). Maybe they’ll be saying bad things here over the time.In fact, Joomla CMS is doing the same, anyone can translate from stracth all the content in many different languages, without limitations and without having to pay.WordPress should be free to translate content, in many languages, without limitations. And I hope more people can join your project. Thank you for everything.

   To make websites accesible for different language speakers in Europe is something desired by everyone. Solutions that comes from companies sometimes is not the best. To have a connection to the european database to make this possible for free is a real deal. This plugin deserves a try and so for sure it will even improve a lot of things

   The co-creators and developers of this plug-in indicate in the description that it can be used free of charge when you receive an API authentication key from the europa(dot)eu website, on which page, the same information is also given. I don’t go into what the deal is between the two, whether it is with public money or private money that this free API is received. To the email given to receive the API authentication key, no one writes back! So this plugin, is a gadget that aims to advertise alternative paid translation providers and as such should be removed from wordpress(dot)org
