 * 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](https://wordpress.org/support/users/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!
