## Description

Adds the alinio translation widget to all pages of the website. The widget translates
the content and shows a language switcher.

For privacy the widget can be loaded only after a visitor chooses a language, optionally
after a notice about the external service (setting “Load on request”).

The plugin needs an account at the alinio translation service, see External services
below.

Content marked with translate=”no” or the class notranslate stays untranslated.

Settings:

 * Enable alinio: Adds the widget script to the head of every frontend page.
 * Load on request: “Off” loads the widget on every page. “Load on click” shows 
   the language switcher with the website’s languages and loads the widget only 
   when a visitor chooses a language there, clicks an element with data-alinio-lang
   or opens a link with ?alinio_lang=. After that the widget is loaded on every 
   page for this visitor until the original language is chosen again. “Load on click
   and confirmation” first shows a notice that the external service alinio is used,
   and loads the widget only when the visitor agrees. Browser language detection
   in the alinio dashboard only applies once the widget is loaded.
 * Personal pages: No widget for logged-in users and on the WooCommerce cart, checkout
   and account pages. These pages can show names, addresses and orders. Developers
   can mark other pages with the filter alinio_personal_page, e.g. `add_filter('
   alinio_personal_page', fn ($personal) => $personal || is_page('members'));`.
 * Site Key: The data-key from the alinio dashboard snippet. Without a site key 
   no widget is added. When the settings are saved, the website’s languages are 
   loaded from alinio and listed below the key. Save the settings again after changing
   the languages in the alinio dashboard.
 * Language Switcher: Where the language switcher appears (bottom right, bottom 
   left, top right, top left, inline or none). Leave it at “Setting of the alinio
   dashboard” to use the position configured there. Inline shows the switcher above
   the content, None hides it.
 * Container: Optional CSS selector, e.g. #language. The language switcher is shown
   inside this element instead of floating.

The inline language switcher is placed at the top of the page with the wp_body_open
hook. Themes that do not call wp_body_open can use the Container setting instead.

The admin bar is marked translate=”no”.

The plugin adds a suggested text for the website’s privacy policy to the Privacy
Policy Guide under Settings / Privacy. It links the alinio website and its privacy
policy (alinio.de for a German user interface).

### External services

This plugin connects the website to the alinio translation service (https://alinio.
app). The service translates the website content and provides the language switcher.
Nothing is loaded from alinio until the plugin is enabled and a site key is entered
under Settings / alinio.

When the settings are saved, the web server loads the website’s languages and switcher
position from https://alinio.app/api/v1/sites/ (identified by the site key). No 
visitor data is sent.

When the plugin is enabled, every visitor’s browser:

 * loads the widget script from https://alinio.app/widget.js on every frontend page(
   with “Load on request” only after the visitor has chosen a language, and confirmed
   the notice if set),
 * loads the website’s language settings from alinio.app, identified by the site
   key,
 * sends the text of the page, the page path and the language to alinio.app when
   the page is shown in another language (chosen by the visitor, or detected from
   the browser language if this is enabled in the alinio dashboard), and receives
   the translations.

With every request alinio.app receives the IP address, the user agent and the requested
URL. The alinio servers keep this technical data only for a short time. The widget
script is loaded without cookies and without the page address as referrer. The widget
sets no cookies. The chosen language and the received translations are stored in
the visitor’s browser (local storage).
