How many blog post people can write with 2000 words? So is it really a free plan? Technically you are limiting users and forcing them to buy your service on an open-source platform. You are using this platform to advertise your PRO plans. The wordpress plugin directory is getting useless because of similar plugins. The wordpress team should clean all the plugins which limit users and forcing / advertising their third-party services.

Hi, Thanks a lot for your message and for the explanation.
Actually, Weglot proposes a Free plan and also proposes Premium plans.
Premium plans allow us to be able to create super cool features such as the Slug Translations (See => https://support.weglot.com/article/148-can-i-translate-my-urls) to improve the UX on your translated versions.
The “Variable” feature (See => https://support.weglot.com/article/302-how-can-i-add-variables-to-my-translations) or the option to detect potentially inactive translation (See => https://support.weglot.com/article/288-how-can-i-remove-inactive-translations) are also helpful features to help optimize your translations.
Weglot also proposes an option to only translate specific pages on your website (See => https://support.weglot.com/article/123-wordpress—how-to-exclude-from-translation-all-pages-except-specific-ones).
All these features could be helpful if you want to keep managing a Free plan with Weglot.
We’d be glad to help you further. You’d just need to contact our team at support@weglot.com and ask for Chris, our Head of Support, so he can personally take care of your demand and help you improve your experience with our plugin.
Have a wonderful day,
Best,
The Weglot Team

Hi Remy, Your service does not have a free plan; its limits force people to use your premium plans. It is obvious. No one can use your plugin with that limits. So let’s be clear instead of hiding this fact with some marketing words. You should make manual translation free with maybe 1 language, that time it is understandable. But 2000 words is nothing.
