UPDATE:

Nick Marshall is the lead developer on this plugin now. He has done an awesome job to bring it to a new level! And he moderates the plugin forum actively! Please feel free to post your questions or comments there as well.

UPDATE:

Thanks Michael Klein for his great work on this plugin. We’ve updated to Version 0.3.1 now.

Some changes:

• Encapsulate the plugin in a class. No global vars needed anymore, faster code! (Michael Klein)
• Better support of capabilities-model (WP 2.6)
• Fixed some html-bugs (missing alt-Tags, etc.)

And, please make sure go to your WordPress Settings->Google Translation admin page to reconfig all the preferences after the updating. Thanks!

Google AJAX Translation is my the first WordPress Plugin, it has been downloaded more than 1700 times until today. And because it is so simple, I haven’t done any major update after the first release.

Couple of days ago, I’ve got an email from Michael Klein from alquanto.de. In his email, he attached a updated version of my plugin and show me how it works on his blog: http://groovengine.de
