Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about translit it!

Yes. Version 1.9.1 includes a complete Russian interface translation and English source strings. WordPress uses the administrator's selected language; choose Russian in your WordPress user profile or site language settings. The Russian sample title stays unchanged so the transliteration example remains useful in either language. The bundled Russian translation works immediately, without waiting for an official WordPress.org language pack. The translation notice on WordPress.org is controlled separately by the review and approval of translations on translate.wordpress.org.

First make sure your site runs WordPress 7.1 or later and PHP 8.4 or later, and back up your files and database. Open Plugins > Installed Plugins and use Update now for translit it!. You do not need to uninstall the old version. The selected conversion mode, fallback checkbox, API key and legacy folder identifier are retained. Open Settings > Translit it! after updating to check them. Leave the API-key replacement field blank to keep the saved key. Direct updates from 1.6 to 1.9.0 were checked through the WordPress admin on WordPress 7.1.3 / PHP 8.4 with MySQL 8.4 and, separately, SQLite. The checks covered Yandex Cloud with fallback enabled and legacy Yandex API 1.5 with fallback disabled, including saving the new form without re-entering the key. Stored options and existing post, page and category slugs were preserved. These checks used fictional keys and did not verify live Yandex translation.

This is intentional: the saved key is not returned to the browser. The "Ключ сохранён" status means a valid key is already stored. Leave the replacement field blank to keep it, enter a new key to replace it, or select "Удалить сохранённый ключ" to remove it explicitly.

There is no bulk conversion or database migration of existing slugs. The plugin converts text only when WordPress asks it to generate a slug for saving. Back up your site and check your normal publishing workflow before upgrading.

Use only one slug conversion plugin at a time to avoid conflicting filters.

It retains the historical ASCII table from this plugin for URL compatibility; it is not a complete implementation of the ISO 9 standard.

Its stored value is preserved during upgrades. Yandex Cloud API keys use their service account's folder, so the legacy identifier is not sent in API-key requests.
