v.1.0.24
Features
- #131 Custom menu is supported for translation via Bulk Submit page
- Menu translation has following limitations:

- If menu item was deleted in the original menu, then this deletion will not be synchronized into translated menus
- Major changes in behavior:
- #129 Translation (placeholder) is created / overwritten with a clone of source content just before sending to Smartling instead of creation on downloading translations. In other words, if user sends post for Spanish, then new post will be created right away on Spanish site (of course with the original content). And this post will be updated when translation is done
- #130 Connector automatically sends related entities for translation, e.g.: categories and tags are automatically sent with posts, pages, etc.; Menu Items of custom menu are also sent for translation with related objects (categories / pages, etc.)
- #132 If entity doesn't have content for translation (e.g. menu items related to categories) it's marked as
Failedand is never sent
- #61 Connector was updated to PHP 5.4 as minimum version to run
