API Keys and Webhooks are now in Settings

A minor change has been made to the UI: the Integrations tab has been removed from the main navigation, and API Keys and Webhooks have been relocated to the Settings tab. This adjustment should make it easier to find these options.

Character limit in translation keys

We've added a character limit option for translation keys! You can now set a maximum number of characters for a translation key, and SimpleLocalize will alert you if this limit is exceeded.

To set up the character limit, go to the translation key settings (Manage Key option under right-click). Learn more in our blog post about this new feature.

Refreshed project cards

We've refreshed the project cards on the dashboard page. The new design will make it easier to introduce new features in the future. You can now add projects to your favorites by clicking the star icon in the top right corner of the project card. Additionally, you can access the "Settings" and "People" tabs, copy the Project Token and API Key, or view any missing translations. We have removed the translation progress indicator, as it was not providing valuable information in most cases.

You can now also upload a custom avatar for your account. This option is available only if you sign up with an email and password.

🗂️ Quick Export from Translation Editor

We've introduced a new feature that allows you to export translations directly from the Translation Editor. This export option respects the applied filters, sorting, and selected languages. You will find 'Export translations' option in the top right corner of the Translation Editor under the icon.

✨ AI Actions and Translation Actions

AI Actions allow you to automatically correct, rephrase, shorten, or extend translations. You can use it via the Context Menu (right-click on the translation key), Bulk Actions, or the new Translation Actions button. AI Actions are powered by OpenAI and are available for all users.

Translation Actions is that little icon next to each translation instead of a button that opens a translation history popup. Having a small menu for each translation allows us to give you more options in the future.

Auto-translate button will now automatically auto-translate the translation if it's empty instead opening a popup with auto-translation options. You can still open the popup by clicking the icon and choosing "Auto-translate".

Additionally, OpenAI auto-translation can now be used without providing your OpenAI key. It will now use auto-translation characters from your plan if the custom API key is not provided.
We've also improved the quality of the OpenAI auto-translation feature by providing a better prompt based on your feedback. In case of any issues, please let us know.

🌁 Screenshots with OCR functionality

Drag and drop multiple screenshots in the Translations tab to upload and assign them to multiple translation keys. SimpleLocalize will automatically process the screenshots and suggest translation keys based on the text found in the images.

Markdown Editor

We are excited to announce that we have added a new feature - Markdown Editor! It's a great tool for managing longer translations that doesn't fit into standard translation input sizes. To use it, you need to change a translation key type from "Text" to "Markdown" in the translation key settings.
