    Loco Translate’s integration with the Yandex translation API has been removed.

    This is most likely permanent.

    Although Yandex is not currently the target of international sanctions, they have been banned in Ukraine for some years. The bottom line is that I don’t wish to have any association with Yandex, and – critically – I will not be responsible for one penny of their revenue resulting from the use of my plugin.

    I could elaborate on my feelings, but this is a WordPress forum for WordPress topics. Read the forum guidelines before considering a comment of your own.

    If you need continued access to the Yandex API then don’t upgrade Loco Translate. You can stay on version 2.5.8 forever, and you’ll have lost nothing.

    Alternatively there are four other built in API providers, or you can even write your own.

    Hi, can you send this add-on? I think it was the best translator. Much better than Google.

    Oh dear… It’s a language… A language of a nation(s)… A nation(s) of various people who born and live on our planet… Shall we just eliminate books from libraries just because they are written in certain language?
    Such ignorance… Such indifference…
