- Now the extension is available in 31 languages thanks to the incredible contributions made by all of you. Please keep them coming at Crowdin!

-
The stable and beta channels of the extension now are built using Manifest Version 3, since MV2 will be deprecated in June 2024. (b55b284)
-
Fix: open translation correctly from the options page (7ba7ec1)
When trying to show a translation in a new tab after selecting text in the extension options page and clicking the "Translate selection" context menu item, the extension didn't open the tab at all. This has been fixed.
-
Fix: add labels to icon buttons for screen reader users in the options page (c15219e)
-
Update dependencies to the latest versions (see the full git changelog below)
Infinite thanks to all the translators who improved the localization of the extension 🎉
Release plan
The extension will be slowly rolled out to the stable channel in Chrome. The plan is to increment the "percentage rollout" value in the CWS settings each day unless an issue is detected during the rollout -- in this case the rollout will be stopped and the issue will be investigated.
If you have found a bug, please report it at https://iavm.xyz/b/translateselectedtext/new. Thank you very much in advance!

Changes
- Updated Turkish translation (contributor: Emre)
- Adapted the options page to RTL languages (before, the interface was always shown LTR even when displaying the interface with a RTL language).
v1.0.3
Status: Available in the beta channel! This version will not be released in the Stable channel. A stable release will be published after fixing #16, which is a stable-blocking bug.
Changes
- Updated Polish translation (contributor: Marek), and added Persian translation (contributor: Reza).
v1.0.2
- Status: Available in the beta channel now! This is the release candidate for the stable channel, which means that if everything goes well, this version will be uploaded to the stable channel.
- Status update (Jan 20, 2020): Now slowly rolling out in the stable channel.
- Status update (Jan 25, 2020): The rollout plan has been changed because of an issue outlined by a user in the CWS "Support" section. It might be possible that the issue is a known issue, a bug, or the fact that the user doesn't know how to change the language settings, but given that this is still unknown, the rollout has been stopped temporarily.
- Status update (Jan 30, 2020): We haven't heard back from the user, so we're continuing with the rollout. The dates have been shifted again (in particular, we will now wait 2 days until moving to a 20% rollout, just to be on the cautious side).
- Status update (Feb 2, 2020): Rollout complete! 🎉
