Why is that?<\/dt>\n<dd><p>When Google Translate adds a new language it is not automatically available through Ackuna. This is because we must make internal changes \nto our plugin script telling it the language is available and how to handle it. Also, we need to add a flag image for that language. We make \nevery effort to keep the plugin's available language list as up to date as possible.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n<!--section=changelog-->\n<h4>4.5.0<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Made branding optional.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>4.4.0<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Images and javascript are now loaded directly from the plugins directory, rather than a remote URL.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>4.3.0<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Fixed bug where button script was included in admin pages.<\/li>\n<li>Added \"reset options\" page.<\/li>\n<li>Included an optional free trial for Google API translation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>4.2.3<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Now supporting over 100 languages.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>2.0.0<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Site language can now be set from the admin panel.<\/li>\n<li>Button functionality is improved and confirmed working with WordPress 4 blogs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>1.3.0<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Removed button text from excerpts.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<!--section=other_notes-->\n<h3>Registered Users<\/h3>\n\n<p>The plugin works \"out of the box\" with no additional setup or registrations required, and is totally free.<\/p>\n\n<p>Although you <strong>do not<\/strong> need a ConveyThis account or Google Translate API key to use the Translate by Ackuna plugin, registered users with a Google Translate API Key can translate their blog text directly on-page without redirecting through a separate frame.<\/p>\n\n<p>If you have a registered account on Ackuna's sister site, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.conveythis.com\/\">ConveyThis<\/a>, you can enter your username into the plugin's <strong>Settings<\/strong> page to activate the account benefits on your WordPress blog Be sure your blog URL has been added to the approved domains list in your account settings.<\/p>\n\n<p>Read more at the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.conveythis.com\/help.php#8\">ConveyThis help<\/a> page.<\/p>\n\n<h4>How to get a Google Translate API key<\/h4>\n\n<p>First, make sure you read up on <a href=\"https:\/\/cloud.google.com\/translate\/v2\/getting_started#setup\">how to create an API key<\/a>, as this process can be a bit technical.
