Only partially translating in Pro. Used to be ok ??

[antonjames]

Hi,

We have a website that uses Gtranslate Pro as part of Wordpress. It has been working fine translating until recently, and for some reason it either doesn't translate or partially translate.

You can view a typical page here to see for yourself:
http://www.kitchoo.com/collection/cuisine-k1-mini-kitchens-compact-minicuisines-kitchenettes-bloccuisines/

We originally set it up with an google API key and this is placed with config.php and recently set it to debug mode.

Debug.txt gives:

}[/i]

Is it just a case that the daily limit is exceeded ? The problem with that is when i log into Google and view stats for that API, is says:
Daily quota: 0
28-day total: 0
Status: No known issues

To get this to work would you suggest we set up billing with Google (which we have never needed to do before) ?

Or i read on some posts in the support forum, we don't need to use an API in Pro as its optional. If that's the case how do we turn it off ? I tried changing the config/php line to:
define('API_KEY', '');
But that gave an error

Did i do this correctly, or how do i turn off the API ?

We aren't bothered to use API stats, we just want the translation to work. If we don't use API is there any down benefits we lose out on except API stats ?

I also tried to force a translation with ?force_translation=1 and i just get a list saying cannot translate

Please see:
http://www.kitchoo.com/en/collection/cuisine-k1-mini-kitchens-compact-minicuisines-kitchenettes-bloccuisines/?force_translation=1

Any suggestions as to whats happening with ALL of the above and more importantly how to solve it would be greatly appreciated.

GTranslate has been a fantastic plugin up to now.

ps if you need GTranslate Team require ftp details etc, please let me know where to send them to.

Thank you, Anton

Hi,
You have reached the daily limit. You just need to wait or you can remove the API key.
define('API_KEY', 'INSERT-YOUR-KEY');
API key is an optional feature.

[antonjames]

Yana, I deleted the line: define('API_KEY', 'INSERT-YOUR-KEY') in config.php to remove the API key and its still only partially translating. I then did a force translation (as suggested in the forum) which you can see at: http://www.kitchoo.com/en/a-propos-abou ... nslation=1 and this is still giving the same errors as i stated in my initial post above. Please see for yourself.

Whats broken with this ? Just because the API has reached its daily limit its killed the plugin ??? Then when i tell it to ignore Google API its still not working.

Whats your next suggestion to either get this to work or a workaround ??

Sorry need to bump this...

Hi,

I can see the following lines :

Please check your API key.

[antonjames]

Yana, i did what you told me to do, i REMOVED the API key. See you post above.
I deleted the line in the config.php file:
define('API_KEY', 'INSERT-YOUR-KEY');
If that is the incorrect way to turn off Google API, how do we do it ? Please instruct fully.

Thank you

Hi,

I think you have installed an older version . Could you please send me your email address? I'll send you the latest version.

[antonjames]

We are using Version 1.0.27

[Yana]

Hi,
The latest version is 3.141592 .

[antonjames]

HI Yana
I have tried to install the newer version you sent but i am getting: "The requested URL /en/ was not found on this server"

I followed the Wordpress installation txt file, but i maybe i've missed something ?? I've double checked folder permissions, the .htaccess file and robots.txt (which i had from the previous version)...and double checked what i should of done.... i've also checked the forum to see if there was any things i needed to do, but have no joy.

We need the translation working as we just had an exhibition too...

Do you mind having a look at the install ? Can i email you our ftp details and WP login.

ps teh main language of the website is french, and fortunately that is working still.

Thank you

[antonjames]

Hi Yana

I managed to figure it out. The .htaccess file was incorrect. I thought I hadn’t got one (as that ftp software kept it hidden) so I created a new one, but obviously the new one didn’t have the default wordpress bits.

I then used a different ftp client that showed the .htacess file. I then added the wordpress bits with the gtanslate part and its all ok and the gtranslate is fully functioning again.

Thank you for your assistance

[Yana]

Hi,
For wordpress you shoud install the General version. Here is the documentation: https://gtranslate.io/docs/57-gtranslat ... on#general

If you want I can install it for you.
