This article describes how to disable the compatibility warning message qTranslate gives in the WordPress post/page editor when the running WordPress version is newer than the one supported by qTranslate.

Try this at your own risk. At all our tests it worked just fine, but we do not guarantee correct functionality on your site.

The problem arises when there is an upgrade version of WordPress, whereas an updated version of qTranslate has not yet been released. This gives rise to a warning message and temporary disablement of the qTranslate Editor.

The warning message is of this form:

This version of qTranslate has not been tested with your WordPress version. To prevent WordPress from malfunctioning, the qTranslate Editor has been disabled. You can reenable it by clicking here (may cause data loss!). To remove this message, please update qTranslate to the corresponding version.

To disable and this message and allow the qTranslate Editor to load is relatively straightforward (tested on qTranslate v.2.5.5):

1. Locate the qTranslate directory, which is found in the plugins folder of your WordPress installation.

2. Edit file qtranslate_wphacks.php
3. Comment out line #63
   echo '<p id="qtrans_imsg">'.__('The qTranslate Editor has disabled itself because it hasn\'t been tested with your WordPress version yet. This is done to prevent WordPress from malfunctioning. You can reenable it by <a href="javascript:qtrans_editorInit();" title="Activate qTranslate" id="qtrans_imsg_link">clicking here</a> (may cause <b>data loss</b>! Use at own risk!). To remove this message permanently, please update qTranslate to the <a href="http://www.qianqin.de/qtranslate/download/">corresponding version</a>.', 'qtranslate').'</p>';
4. Comment out line #65
   $init_editor = false;
5. Save and close

The warning message should now be disabled and the qTranslate Editor should be loaded.
