 * I was using qtranslate up until today when I switched to your plugin, most seems
   to work fine so far- thanks.
 * The only issue I see so far is:
    <?php the_modified_date(‘[:en]jS F Y [:da]j 
   F Y [:de]j. F Y [:es]j F Y [:no]j F Y [:pt]jS F Y [:sv]j F Y [:fr]jS F Y [:nl]
   j F Y [:it]j F Y ‘); ?>
 * Used to show in Qtranslate correctly but doesn’t in mqtranslate.

 * I’m surprised it was working with qTranslate as we did not find anything relevant
   with quicktags for this function.
 * However, we implemented the feature and it will be available in the next update
   of the plugin.

 * There is an error in correctly displaying the_modified_date it shows now the 
   published date instead of the date the post was last modified.

 * I removed the filter from mqtranslate_hooks.php and the function now works correctly,
   apart from using another language for date text, but that may have been in my
   qtranslate .mo files don’t remember how I got it working before.
 * add_filter(‘get_the_modified_date’, ‘qtrans_dateFromPostForCurrentLanguage’,0,2);

 * Ok, we fixed this issue. A permanent fix will be available in the next release.
 * For now, you can replace
 * `add_filter('get_the_modified_date', 'qtrans_dateFromPostForCurrentLanguage',
   0,2);`
 * by
 * `add_filter('get_the_modified_date', 'qtrans_dateModifiedFromPostForCurrentLanguage',
   0,2);`
