<p>WordPress 4.9.6 added a few tools to help you creating and displaying a privacy policy or assist with requests for exporting/erasing personal data.<br />
Depending on your location or type of install (the tools may not be suitable for Multisite or large networks), you may have already taken measures to comply with existing privacy laws or/and you do not need them at all.</p>
<p>With this plugin, all the new admin screens will be disabled to prevent cluttering your admin with more unused items. It also prevents showing you the feature pointer if you install this plugin before the update.</p>

Disable Privacy Tools

Thank you for releasing this plugin, Dominik!

I think the whole Privacy Tools thing is plugin territory to begin with, but that's probably a whole different story/discussion.

Anyways, thank you for coming with this counter measure, to give people free choice again :)

Cheers,
Pieter

great plugin that disables core "functionality"

I'm just glad I didn't have to build another plugin to disable core features. So, thanks for saving me some time. :)

Thanks!

Nice & Easy. 

BTW, as of today (WP 4.9.6 RC1), when the Privacy Tool erases a person's private data in comments, it changes the commentors name to Anonymous, which is fine, but it puts a link to it which points to https://site.invalid, which will result in a bunch of broken link, which of course Google will dearly punish you for all the broken links.

Perfect !

Removes the tools for creating a privacy policy and exporting/erasing personal data.

<h3>Use any Locale, with or without Language Packs</h3>
<p>With core Language Packs you can easily change the language of your WordPress install.</p>
<p>The Language Packs used to be provided only for 100% translated Locales.</p>
<p>To give teams with less contributors a better chance to get WordPress released into their Locale, since <a href="https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/2021/02/22/wordpress-5-7-ready-to-be-translated/" rel="nofollow ugc">22nd February 2021</a> the required translation status for core Language Packs to be built are as follows:</p>
<ul>
<li>The <a href="https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp/dev/" rel="nofollow ugc">Front-end project</a> needs to be translated at least <strong>90%</strong>.</li>
<li>The <a href="https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp/dev/admin/" rel="nofollow ugc">Administration project</a> needs to be translated at least <strong>75%</strong>.</li>
<li>The <a href="https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp/dev/admin/network/" rel="nofollow ugc">Network Admin</a> and <a href="https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp/dev/cc/" rel="nofollow ugc">Continent & Cities</a> projects are not included in the threshold calculation.</li>
</ul>
<p>If you need a Locale that has no Language Packs yet, this tool helps you by enabling ALL Locales on the list of the available languages.</p>
<h3>Compatible with plugin <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/preferred-languages/" rel="ugc">Preferred Languages</a></h3>
<p>The plugin <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/preferred-languages/" rel="ugc">Preferred Languages</a> overrides the standard languages field for site and user languages.</p>
<p>All the features added by Translation Tools are available for Preferred Languages users.</p>
<h3>Update your WordPress, Plugins or Themes translation, on demand</h3>
<p>If you need to update your WordPress core, Plugins or Themes translations on demand without waiting for a language pack to be generated, this tool allows you to manually update all the needed files for the installed version, with one click, in a few seconds.</p>
<p>Go to “Translations” on the Updates screen and choose what you want to update.</p>
<h4>All WordPress core sub-projects</h4>
<ul>
<li>Development</li>
<li>Continents & Cities</li>
<li>Administration</li>
<li>Network Admin</li>
</ul>
<h4>All translation files</h4>
<ul>
<li>.po (editable translation files)</li>
<li>.mo (binary translation files)</li>
<li>.l10n.php (PHP performant translation files)</li>
<li>.json (JavaScript translation files)</li>
</ul>
<h3>WordPress Translations tests and info in Site Health</h3>
<p>Check your WordPress core translations in Site Health tests page.</p>
<p>The Site Health debug info shows the selected site and user languages, including multiple languages from the plugin Preferred Languages.</p>


Translation Tools

A fundamental tool for translators (and not only), works flawlessly.

Essential

The big difficulty when a plugin uses mostly JS is that the source files are minified. It is therefore very difficult to understand exactly where the string to be translated is.
This plugin allows to start the translation by validating and testing the strings locally little by little. Without waiting for 90%.

Essential plugin for translating plugins that use the block editor


This is a function that Wordpress should bring natively!


Excellent work
