Controls and optimizes translation history in GlotPress<\/a> by enforcing limits on waiting<\/code> and old<\/code> entries per string,\nreducing unnecessary revisions and keeping the database lean and efficient.<\/p>\n\n

    \n

  1. It limits the number of waiting<\/code> translations.\nAny waiting<\/code> translations above the limit are set to old<\/code> status and are no longer shown in the waiting translations list.<\/p><\/li>\n

  2. It limits the number of old<\/code> translations.\nAny old<\/code> translations above the limit are permanently deleted from the database.<\/p><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n

    How the limit works<\/h3>\n\n

    Assume the limit is set to 2 translations per string<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1. Single user behavior<\/h3>\n\n

    When a single user submits multiple translations:<\/p>\n\n

      \n
    • The latest translation<\/strong> is always marked as waiting<\/code><\/li>\n
    • The previous waiting<\/code> translation becomes old<\/code><\/li>\n
    • If the number of old<\/code> translations exceeds the limit:\n\n
        \n
      • The oldest old<\/code> translation is deleted<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n

        Result:<\/strong>\n- 1 waiting<\/code> translation (latest)\n- Up to 2 old<\/code> translations (limited)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        2. Multiple users<\/h3>\n\n

        When multiple users submit translations for the same string:<\/p>\n\n

          \n
        • Each user can have one waiting<\/code> translation<\/strong><\/li>\n

        • A new submission:<\/p>\n\n

            \n
          • Replaces that user\u2019s previous waiting<\/code> (which becomes old<\/code>)<\/li>\n
          • Does affect other users waiting<\/code> translations<\/strong> if the total number of waiting<\/code> translations exceeds the limit<\/li>\n
          • The oldest waiting<\/code> translation<\/strong> over the limit (regardless of user) becomes old<\/code><\/li>\n<\/ul><\/li>\n

          • All old<\/code> translations are shared (counted globally per string)<\/p><\/li>\n

          • All waiting<\/code> translations are shared (counted globally per string)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n

            Configuration<\/h4>\n\n

            Once installed, GlotCore History Limiter is ready to use. The default limit is set to 3 history entries per string.<\/p>\n\n

            You can change this limit by defining the following constant in your wp-config.php<\/code> file:\n php\ndefine( 'GLOTCORE_HISTORY_LIMIT', 3 ); \/\/ Change 3 to your desired limit<\/code><\/p>\n\n

            You can also modify the limit by hooking into the glotcore_history_limit<\/code> filter in your theme or plugin:\n php\nadd_filter( 'glotcore_history_limit', function( $limit ) {\n return 3; \/\/ Change 3 to your desired limit\n} );<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n

            1.0<\/h4>\n\n
