After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Description

The qTranslate-XT plugin is an eXTended version of qTranslate-X that we are reviving with a new community, since the original plugin is abandoned by its author. Our first goal is to maintain the essential features of this plugin with the last Wordpress and PHP updates. The migration to Gutenberg will be a critical milestone for the survival of this plugin. We are currently building a new organization to give qTranslate a new life. Let's try together, anyone is welcome to participate!

GitHub repository of the new repo: https://github.com/qtranslate/qtranslate-xt.git.

Installation

Since the -XT version is not officially available at Wordpress.org the initial installation must be done manually. You require the permissions to access the plugins folder of your Wordpress installation. Contact your system administrator if needed.

  1. Download the last release from GitHub in zip or tar.gz format (usually zip for Windows users). Alternatively, for developers and those familiar with git, you can git clone the new repo and work on the current branch.
  2. Uncompress the archive in your plugins folder and rename it to qtranslate-xt.
  3. Deactivate plugin qTranslate-X, qTranslate, mqTranslate, qTranslate Plus, zTranslate or any other multilingual plugin, if you are running any.
  4. Activate qTranslate-XT through the 'Plugins' admin page in WordPress (/wp-admin/plugins.php).

If you didn't already have qTranslate-X, proceed with the initial setup of qTranslate-XT:

  1. Open Settings > Languages configuration page and add/delete/disable any languages you need.
  2. Add the "qTranslate Language Chooser" widget or "Language Switcher" menu item to let your visitors switch the language.

Check the FAQ for further instructions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is qTranslate-X not maintained anymore?

The previous qTranslate-Team was only one person. We tried to contact the author many times but we got no answer since 2016. Our goal is to build up a real team and make this plugin available again for the whole community. We can't update the official plugin yet. It is still not clear either if we should go on with the qTranslate name, but for now we should focus on new releases. The -XT version can be seen for the least as a "bridge" project.

I'm still using qTranslate-X, can I test qTranslate-XT?

Yes and it's very easy! Currently you can have both qTranslate-X and qTranslate-XT installed in the plugins folder for experimentations, but you should have at most one active at any time: BOTH -X AND -XT SHARE THE SAME OPTIONS! So if you change some options and switch between the plugins, the last changes will remain for the other. The plugin can actually re-adapt its configuration after a switch, in the general case you have nothing to do. If you have some incompatible options you should see some warnings. Note that even if you uninstall either -X or -XT, the options are not erased!

Disclaimer: be sure to backup your database regularly.

Is the Block Editor (Gutenberg) supported?

It is partially supported, with some limitations. Read carefully our Gutenberg FAQ before use.

Is WooCommerce, ACF, QTS (Slugs), ... supported?

WooCommerce, ACF, Slugs and other plugins are now supported as built-in modules. Developers able to test properly are much welcome! Please send PR for bug fixes. See the complete list of available modules in our repo.

Is any plugin/themes supported?

Some major plugins are now supported with the built-in modules. Some plugins are also supported with built-in i18n configurations. For other plugins you need to provide custom integration through i18n configuration (json) and/or code (PHP/JS). A major refactoring is needed to make this easier.

I'm new to qTranslate, where can I find detailed instructions for startup?

How to update qTranslate-XT with the last release?

Since the -XT version is not available at wordpress.org, we recommend you to install GitHub Updater. This is is an awesome tool to update plugins from a git repo (with many other features). It checks regularly the last release available in github (from the git tags) and compares it to your current version (defined in the header of qtranslate.php). If a new release is available an update link will appear as for a regular plugin from Wordpress. The check is performed even if the plugin is deactivated.

Alternatively you can delete the current folder and repeat the installation from the last archive. Make sure to deactivate the previous version and then activate the new one, otherwise you will miss the execution of activation hooks and some options may become misconfigured.
