bertilow

This plugin gives better transliteration of non-ASCII characters in slugs. Currently covers Esperanto, Swedish, Finnish, Danish, Norwegian, German, Russian and Bulgarian. It can also handle dashes.
When WordPress creates slugs for the titles of posts and pages, and for tags and categories, it makes them all-ASCII, which among other things means removing diacritics (e.g. “é” becomes “e”, “ö” becomes “o”, “ĉ” becomes “c”, etc.). For some languages the default filtering is OK, but for others it gives very bad results. The results for languages that don’t even use a Latin script are especially unsatisfactory. The plugin Transliterado provides better transliteration systems for some languages. You can choose which of those systems should be used for your slugs. For some languages more than one transliteration system is available. Transliterado can also go through already existing posts and pages, and redo their slugs, if the user chooses that option. Another option does the same for tags and categories.
Significant parts of the code comes from the plugins Rustolat by Anton Skorobogatov, BGtoLat by Ognyan Mladenov, and Slugger by Hans Christian Saustrup.
Maybe you want to add systems for other languages. It’s very easy to do. Have a look at the files for the languages that are in the plugin package already. I’ll be happy to include any additions that are sent to me: “bertilow” at “gmail.com”.
Priskribo:
Ĉi tiu kromprogramo donas pli bonan transliteradon de ne-Askiaj literoj en URL-nomoj. Nun prizorgataj estas Esperanto, la Sveda, la Finna, la Dana, la Norvega, la Germana, la Rusa kaj la Bulgara.
Kiam WordPress kreas URL-nomojn por afiŝoj kaj paĝoj, kaj por etikedoj kaj kategorioj, ĝi transformas ilin al Askio, kio interalie signifas, ke ĝi forigas ĉiujn kromsignojn (ekz. “é” fariĝas “e”, “ö” fariĝas “o”, “ĉ” fariĝas “c”, k.t.p.). Por iuj lingvoj la defaŭlta filtrado estas en ordo, sed por aliaj ĝi donas tre malbonan rezulton. Precipe nekontentigaj estas la rezultoj por lingvoj, kiuj eĉ ne uzas la Latinan alfabeton. La kromprogramo Transliterado provizas pli bonajn transliteradajn sistemojn por kelkaj lingvoj. Oni povas elekti, kiuj el tiuj sistemoj estu uzataj por URL-nomoj. Por iuj lingvoj haveblas pli ol unu transliterada sistemo. Transliterado ankaŭ povas prilabori jam ekzistantajn afiŝojn kaj paĝoj, refarante ties URL-nomojn, se la uzanto elektas tiun eblon. Alia eblo faras la samon pri etikedoj kaj kategorioj.
Gravaj partoj de la kodo venas el la kromprogramoj Rustolat de Anton Skorobogatov, BGtoLat de Ognyan Mladenov, kaj Slugger de Hans Christian Saustrup.
Eble vi volas aldoni sistemojn por aliaj lingvoj. Tio estas tre facila. Rigardu la dosierojn de tiuj lingvoj, kiuj jam estas en la kromprograma paketo. Mi volonte enmetos aldonojn, kiujn vi sendos al mi: “bertilow” ĉe “gmail.com”.

<h3>Disclaimer about WordPress 6.5</h3>
Attention: most functionality of this plugin has been merged into WordPress 6.5! You might not need it anymore.
However, this plugin is still relevant for cases where language packs are not downloaded from WordPress.org but somewhere else, for example if you are developing your own plugins or using commercial plugins.
The Performant Translations plugin converts the translation files of those plugins to the new file format introduced in WordPress 6.5, to really optimize them for speed.
<h3>What this plugin does</h3>
This project uses a new approach to handle translation files in WordPress, making localization blazing fast.
An <a href="https://make.wordpress.org/core/2023/07/24/i18n-performance-analysis/" rel="nofollow ugc">in-depth i18n performance analysis</a> showed that localized WordPress sites load significantly slower than a site without translations.
With this plugin’s new approach to localization, this overhead is massively reduced, making your site fast again. It does so by converting <code>.mo</code> translation files to <code>.php</code> files.
If your site is using a language other than English (US), you should see immediate speed improvements simply by activating this plugin.

Performant Translations


This is a commendable effort, and it came out at the perfect time, at least for me.



I am looking forward to seeing how it evolves, and I hope to see it merged with the core in the fourth phase of the Gutenberg project.


Commendable effort


Installed this plugin to see what the effect is on my site. I am not yet 100% sure that it makes a big difference. But that all depends on the amount of texts used on your site. So far no bad experiences


Plugin speeds up the presentation of your site


This problem has been around for a long time and I've used various plugins. I hope it will be added to the core soon!


Required for non-English speaking WPs


I've got a multi language site (with WPML) that has a huge performance problem. I was not able to figure out what is actually causing the performance problem, the main problem probably has nothing to do with i18n, this plugin still helps cause it significantely speeds up the translations, leaving the only bottleneck to be the unknown problem.



Many thanks for your efforts!


Cool
