Breadcrumb NavXT WPML Extensions 1.1.0

Posted by in Announcements

Announcing the immediate availability of Breadcrumb NavXT WPML Extensions 1.1.0. This version switches to the WPML 3.2+ API for translating strings. Backwards compatibility with WPML 3.1 (and older) is maintained. However, users of other plugins (Polylang) that provide emulations of the WPML API may no longer work. Speaking of which, Polylang will get its own extension in early 2016. Additionally, a bug that prevented updated setting strings from Breadcrumb NavXT from showing up in the string translation screen on non-multisite installs in a timely matter.

Users with valid and activated license keys should receive an update notification within the WordPress dashboard and be able to use the update mechanism to update (just like with any plugin in the WordPress.org repository).

Breadcrumb NavXT Translations Moving to Language Packs

Posted by in Announcements

Breadcrumb NavXT is moving away from distributing language files starting with the 5.3.0 release (slated for early October). Rather than ship translations, Breadcrumb NavXT now supports language packs from WordPress.org. As of today, language packs through WordPress.org have been enabled for Breadcrumb NavXT.

For end users, only a few things will change. The first is the download size for Breadcrumb NavXT will be reduced. Second, only translation sets that are 100% complete are eligible for language pack inclusion. Previously, 90% completion of a language translation set was required to ship with Breadcrumb NavXT.

Due to this migration, translate.mtekk.us will be retired sometime in early October. Going forward, translation efforts should be made on the GlotPress install located at translate.wordpress.org. The good news is, ff you have a WordPress.org account, you can now help translate Breadcrumb NavXT.

Lastly, a mailing list to notify translators of impending Breadcrumb NavXT releases that require translation updates will still be maintained. An email announcing these changes has been sent to the translation team.
