📣 Gato AI Translations for Polylang v13.0: New logging and troubleshooting features
Gato AI Translations for Polylang has just released v13.0 with support for Claude 4, and powerful new logging and troubleshooting features to help you understand what's happening with your translations.
Get notified when translations fail, and why they failed
Translations can fail for several reasons, such as when the translation API goes offline, the API key is missing or invalid, or when automatic translations are not enabled.
The plugin will now keep you informed about these issues in real-time, by adding a notification badge in the plugin menu:
This badge will prompt you to check out the logs:
Clicking on the log entry, you can find out why the translation failed:
For instance, in this log entry we can see that the translation failed because the DeepL API key is missing:
🔴 Error [Query "translate-media"] Execution with errors: Provider 'DeepL' doesn't have an API key configuredThis makes it easy to identify and fix the issue - in this case, we just need to add the API key in the plugin Settings.
Log severities
Logs are categorized by severity to help you quickly identify issues:
| Severity | Description |
|---|---|
| 🔴 Error | Critical issues that prevent the operation from completing Example: The API key is missing |
| 🟡 Warning | Non-critical issues that may affect the operation Example: There are no posts to translate |
| 🔵 Info | General information about the operation Example: Request sent to the API |
| 🟢 Debug | Detailed information for debugging purposes Example: Successful operation |
Configurable logging
You can customize the logging behavior in Settings > Plugin Configuration > Logs & Notifications:
Configure:
- Enable/disable logging and notifications
- Which severities to log
- Which severities trigger notifications
These new features address an important issue we've had for a while, and will hopefully make your use of Gato AI Translations for Polylang easier and better.
