 * Hi,
 * We’re using WordPress as a multisite-installation. I installed wqTranslate and
   imported the settings from qTranslate. qTranslate previously worked well (we 
   changed, because it hasn’t been updated to support WordPress 3.9 yet).
 * When a site administrator logs in and goes to “Pages”, the title and text of 
   the only appear in the default language he set. And title and text are now only“
   Read only”. It works ok as a network administrator. Have you tested mqTranslate
   in a multisite environment?

 * Although French and English are added as language, only the French title and 
   tab are visible.

 * Yes, this one threw me as well.
 * Edit the user account that has the problem and near the bottom you will see a
   new section called mqtranslate with tickbox(es) for “allow user to edit in this
   language”. By default it is unticked. Just tick it and save.
 * Might be worth including this in a qtranslate>mqtranslate migration FAQ.

 * Hi,
 * We are aware of this issue and will provide a setting in a future release (maybe
   next but I cannot promise) to resolve this.

 * [@dlt95](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dlt95/): Thanks, that works.
 * [@chsxf](https://wordpress.org/support/users/chsxf/): It would be great if the
   permissions for editing posts were checked by default. Currently it’s a bit of
   a pain. Anyways, thanks for your continued work on the plugin.

 * We will release today an update to the plugin which includes a setting to completely
   disable user-level language protection.
    Furthermore, if enabled but no setting
   has been provided for a user profile, all languages will be activated by default
   for this user.
 * We will provide a more complete setting page later.
