Would it be possible to add a layer that checks to see if it is an approved translation then it doesn’t do automatic? Or something where it ignores items that have professional translations? A way to lock automatic translations on a URL basis would be ideal. For example, we often professionally transfer Chinese but use automatic for the others, so putting in /zh-cn/page.html to be ignored would be awesome.
As it is now, if we have a manual translation done and then make a simpe change to the English page, the manual translation gets overwritten.
Hi Skarr, thanks for the feedback, I’m working on this to have a beta test soon. Let me know if you would be interested to test it.
Thanks. I would love to help test this.
I’m also interested in beta testing (if possible) on some client and personal websites
I also encountered this. The process of making changes on the original language and then translating the change is confusing.
Any updates on this? 2 years ago it was mentioned that a solution was being worked on.
We tested a new WP plugin to replace. It’s working but it’s not perfect so we didn’t release it. However, in the meantime we have release a feature to detect “inactive translations”, which can help in this topic
Currently, every translation we do (manually) of our Help Articles gets deleted every time the updates such help articles. The work the Translations team did previously disappeares to an automatic translation (even if just a word or a sentence is added or changed). This results in reprocessing over and over again the same translations of the same help articles.
We need a feature that would allow us to identify (pin-out) the sentence or parts that were changed and approve-proofread/translate before submitting the final version. It will be great to have this on the visual editor
+1 this is a MAYOR pain poit with Weglot

I hope the team still work on this. It’s a major issue currently and my company is planning to expand languages. Hope there’s an update
