    We’ve been using Transposh for spanish translations of our website,and it’s working really well.

    We have an editor that is going through and cleaning up some of the translations, but we’re running into some trouble in our events section. Since it’s being translated from en to es the dates need to be reversed, but Transposh doesn’t seem to allow you to edit numbers/punctuation is this normal behavior for the plugin?

    I see that you prefer to be offended by nothing, and to have the last word as well…

    I guess that when your refrigerator (oven, sink, car, whatever) broke down, you hired someone to fix it for you, I guess you didn’t ask on forums, got some answer you could not cipher because you lacked the technical skill (change the compressor, check gas levels) and went on to bash the guy who answered you. This is not something trolls do in real life, do they?

    So I suggest that you report my plugin as broken, vote it down, keep thanking my for nothing.

    I will thank you in exchange for the payment I relieved for my advice and the time spent looking on your site (oops, there’s none of that)

    I will also thank you for the time you took to try and understand what a java script console (jsconsole) inside a browser is, you probably googled it, right (my guess is you didn’t even bother)

    My last thanks, is that by your attitude you have given me a good lesson regarding giving free support for people who believe they own you because they installed some free software. Obviously you believe that there is something I awe you. so no, NOT here.

    Oh I’m not offended, yo don’t offend me, but you surely don’t impress me either.

    I’ve contributed to a wide variety of plugins. I’ve paid for many a plugin and always been willing to help with translations or what ever I can do for coders. If fact, I am translating a calendar plugin at this very moment.

    I never accused your plugin of being a problem I just came here looking for a little help when it stopped working. It appeared that you were willing to help until I didn’t understand one of your explanations.

    I am sorry that I am not as good as you and know everything such as yourself. Yes, I use Google quite often to find solutions because I don’t claim to know everything.

    You on the other hand appear to know it all and aren’t willing to share anything without getting paid… Well, had you been a little nicer, and maybe talked with a ‘less experienced’ guy, you just may have been paid.

    You my friend are having a pretty bad day, no more like week…maybe longer but who am I to judge.

    You want the last word? Go for it. Or you could let this be the last word. Either way, I could care less.

    Have a Nice Day!

    Everyone needs to calm down a bit here.

    Ofer Wald – He’s not trying to offend you or insult you. BUT you’re at a point where you need to start providing support to non-tech people in non-tech terms. A lot of users don’t know the ins and outs of JS, and would like some help. If you can help them, great. If not, it’s okay to say “I’m sorry, I don’t have enough free time to fix that for free.” A lot of us say that all the time.

    NES – Watch out with the sarcasm in these arguments, eh? The fuel the fire when we don’t want it to ??

    @ipstenu , If the guy is not trying to offend, I am not sure what he is doing, however, support from me is not something he is likely to get, whichever name he chooses to post in.

    I will also put a simpler note regarding the payments, I have never asked anyone to be paid for support, and I would repeat, with capital letters, separated with whitespace so the non-tech guy might be able to read it,

    N E V E R.

    I won’t start counting the number of hours I have put into this free support, and the number of times I logged into user sites just to find nothing wrong in my code (for the times something actually was wrong)

    I will also note, that I have taken the time to look at this “person” site, he has a broken javascript, not even slightly related to the plugin I am supporting (again, for free). Instead of actually trying to fix his site, or getting the help he need (might be he need more help than just webmastering, but I am not being un-sarcastic here) he thinks he will achieve something with his messages.

    He actually did.

    Good night.

    There are nicer ways to say ‘No.’ Ofer Wald. The money thing doesn’t matter if you don’t want it to.

    NES, the answer is this: He doesn’t want to provide that level of support at this time. Some of it is outside the scope of his plugin.

    I’m closing this thread. NES, please feel free to open your own thread about this, and maybe some of the other volunteers want to pitch in. Ofer Wald, you are under no obligation to reply, so don’t feel like you have to. I mean that sincerely.
