Yeah thanks for the link but we already use one of thoses plugins (Polylang), I know it's not the best one but it's a free one, the best solutions for SEO and optimisation would have been to buy 2 different domain name (.fr and .com) but it's the same we can't really afford it (we are also on a shared hosting so.. Some plugins consumes too much resources)

and subdomain?

7 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

I already tried that with the same plugin (Polylang) it worked well but it was more difficult for nothing more in comparaison with just adding a /en/ before the ".fr". And btw as I already explained to some people, I can't use this plugin anymore because it has a limitation of words in the free plan so... I tried to see if there were any other solutions than just a google translate application but they all seems to work the same way :/.

Sadly, Polylang wasn't able to translate all the text in some pages, like in the shop (because it duplicate the original page to translate it but it can't do it for some kind of pages) so I had to put the 2 differents languages on the same page, separated by a " / " and it wasn't a good solution. When you were going to one of thoses pages that wasn't translatable, you was loosing the selected language and thus, had to change back again the language to english...

So it was nice for the SEO and for the english people because I was able to edit the translation of all posts instead of using a bot but well... now theses extensions can't translate our new course version (different from the post).

So for all theses reason that's why I choosed (maybe it's not a definitive solution) to use a plugin that use google translate and that are able to translate everything on the website in more than just one language! Hope it was clear enough :D

Yep, if you add "/en/" after the ".fr" it will translate it in english.

You also have a widget at the right named "languages" under "My Balance" where you can choose English if the page is already translated in english.

Ah! Thanks for your help, well you don't really need to master French because all posts are already translated but by a bot, it would just be to check the spelling / if the sentences makes senses and if not, change it.

Hello, well I think that this is related to Ryzhehvhost issue (see under this post) it might be because the system check if you have uppercase, lowercase and number in your password. So, because people seems to get some problems with it I'm going to remove the verification!

"Votre mot de passe doit contenir au moins une minuscule, une majuscule et un chiffre"
And now I hate you. Seriously. The only one who have the rights to tell me what should be my password - is my employer. Because, you know, it this case safety of my account is his concern. I know many site have such restrictions these days, oh well - I can hate many people simultaneously.

PS. "Abcd1234" is considered a secure password. What a freaky world we live in today...

PS2. I can change registration date in my profile... Great idea.

Hello, I understand. I though that it would be more secure for the website to have only strong password but it seems that people don't like it (and it's true that having to put at least a uppercase letter when we don't want to can be frustrating). So, I'm going to work on this :)

is this similar to tremor?

7 years ago
Permalink

Comment has been collapsed.

Well I don't really know how Tremor works, but it seems that it's similar, on FREEDOM SUBSTITUTE you can either win a giveaway (so without points, just by being lucky) or you can be sure to get a game that you bought in the shop if you have enough points.

There is multiple ways to win points like Tremor I guess, but you don't have to play games on FREEDOM SUBSTITUTE, all what you have to do is connect every day, read/comment posts, refer a friend, trade items for points... etc. If you want more informations about how to win points you can go to the following address: http://www.freedom-substitute.fr/en/how-to-earn-points/

Hope this is clear :D

Hi!

First I want to thanks you for your report :D

  • So, for your first point you are right, the post are currently translated by a bot and I'll have to check all of them (it's still 10 pages!) one by one to see if all the sentences make censes. That's why I am "recruting" people to help me with that task, with all the other things I have to do on the website it's hard for me to translate the post, but it's planned!

  • For the random log out that's weird, I disabled the auto session / cookie destroy... I'll investigate.

  • I see what you mean for the shop yeah, I'll see if it's possible or what I can do (because it's managed by a plugin).

  • For the points I don't really know, because there is other way to win points like by trading items, and even without trading any item, one of our new recruit (the scottish) as managed to buy 2 games, 1 T3 & 2 T1 cards in less than one month (T3 cards is 0.50 and more, even premium) so if I lower the price I'm afraid that it will be too easy for people to get them,and that I won't have enough stock proportional to the demand :/

  • For Gleam I still havn't found a better (and free) giveaway plateform, I know there is other free plateforms but they don't support all what I want the people to do so... If you have any plateform to suggest, I'm interested :)

Anyway, I'm going to see what I can do for most of theses points, it may takes time :p

So regarding the changes that my friend and I made:

  • In the Frequency part there is a new subpart "V-Sync"
  • In the Size part there is a new subpart "Screen size"
  • Black to Black part has been changed to grey to grey and thus we added more content.

There is still some things that we havn't spoke about like all the overview of all manufacturers.

LOL I was being facetious. No one "programs in MS-DOS" -- if anything it's called batch scripting -- and no one calls managing websites/hosting "webmastering" it's just a really funny term to hear/type/say and it gave me a good laugh.

Still I've joined your group waiting and hoping to see something entertaining pop up aside from the awesome JJam & Doge banner on your front page. :D

Good luck! (P.S. if you need any English help feel free to add me on Steam and PM me or you can DM me on Twitter @ https://twitter.com/hackers)

Aaah, I feel so awkward right now :D. But yeah thanks for the suggestion I'll probably change the MS-DOS thing.

At first it wasn't easy to found the appropriate name of each categories for all the posts without making too much categories so... I tried to use names that includes severals subcategories in one.

Regarding the Webmastering, at the beginning I wasn't planning to post only CMS course and I don't see what other name I could use (because in the futur I will probably post something else in relation with Webmastering but not with CMS so I can't call it "CMS").

And thanks for you support, I'll go back to you soon :D
