Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Secure Gettext
Yes and no. The translation system on translate.wordpress.org is built on trust. Translation Editors will only approve strings that are just the translations of original text. This has worked very well so far. So indeed you can trust translations coming from there, for example through language packs. On the other hand, translation files provide a potential vector for attackers to insert malicious content. This could be spam links, or even JavaScript code. If you receive a translation file from an untrusted source, then it might be unsafe. This plugin doesn't fully protect you from such dangers, but makes it harder for potential attackers to insert their own content into translated texts.
If the plugin is activated, in the best case it doesn't change anything visually. Translated text should behave the same way as before, there might be some escaping taking place (for example) something that had no HTML in the original text will have any HTML tags contained in the translated text be printed verbose. In order to be able to verify if the plugin is in fact active, there is a special URL parameter that you can use when you view a page with a logged-in user: ?secure-gexttext=show This mode will modify all screen text to be wrapped with a [Escaped: <text>]. This is purely for debugging functionality and might be removed in future.
