Plugin is not compatible with WPML

    Hey there,

    I have encountered this plugin and i can pretty much say that it works as it should so far,

    Except that it doesn’t support WPML and it actually will detect translated posts with the same title as duplicate & it will result in the translated post to being deleted most of the time,

    I would suggest editing the code so it sends a different SQL query to check and delete each language duplicates seperately,

    Also, you can add an option to enable/disable this feature from the settings,

    Looking forward for your input,
    Thanks in Advance!

    Hello @hideath

    Thank you for your ticket – good idea. I have not tested with WPML, but it does sound like it does not work properly in a multilang environment. There is definitely some work to make it compatible and not delete duplicates across different languages. Thank you for your suggestion.

    I believe a decent developer should get it to work in no time,
    I’m familiar with MySQL/php, but yet don’t have the required knowledge/level to go through the codes,

    You can also add this as an option for the premium version as well as another option to go through different categories separately,
    It could be done by selecting the posts for each language/category and loop the main function for each of them (And/Or, it should work for both tho),

    I really hope that would be implemented and even ready to help on this if you can guide me where i should place the changes and I’ll be doing it myself & testing to get some fully working one

    Lol, thank you for your estimate. Feel free to dive in, it sounds easy when you explain it. This will be a good way for you to get more experience with developing. This feature will be implemented in a future release of this plugin.

    Stay safe and take care.

    Thanks once again Lars,

    In fact, i just double checked and i do have a premium license with you already that I’m not using because of that,

    It may be greedy from my part, but i really hope to get this into working asap to be able to use the plugin in my website as it will delete the translated posts even with not strictly matching titles,

    Looking forward for your input,
    No pressure!
