How to saving/frugal money, using paid Google v2 API. Please share your tips and tricks!

[basketmen]

In Google API settings page, i set max 1 M characters perday = its mean i need to pay $20 per day to google, to use google translate. This is ok for me, as i earned more than that per day from ads

so i am trying to make more less money that i need to spend to Google for each day, but still can using google translate. I am still not sure the test result for below idea, so i am asking for official answer, and this community help





- Tips/tricks 1. The more less text characters that translated, the more less money that i need to spend to google

So i am thinking using IF NOT conditional in some area in my forum that not important, in some templates, so google translate no need to translating it, so more less money that i need to spend to Google :

If this area is no need showing in translated page, so no need to translate, is this the conditional? :

<if condition="!isset($_REQUEST['language'])">
Some area that not important, that no need to translate. ie welcome header, announcement, etc
</if>

Nb. I get that code from here http://www.vbenterprisetranslator.co....html#post7847






- Tips/tricks 2. No need to translate some forums, that not important

I think currently, vbet is translating all forum, and there is no options for exclude some forums

so i think need this IF NOT conditional, that we need to wrap in the code of these plugins :
'vB Enterprise Translator - Flags'
'vB Enterprise Translator'
'Write guest cache'

if ($GLOBALS['forumid'] != xx) {
the plugin code above that need to wrap
}

Nb. Change xx wih the forum you dont want to exclude from translating









Adminstration note: this tip is wrong - it is not needed at all

- Tips/tricks 3. No need to translate some styles, only translating in a style
for example :
default style domain.com is translated
but domain.com/?styleid=xx is translated again, its mean double page that translated, even have same text content, only different style, its not effective right, why we need translating all styles


so i think need this IF NOT conditional, that we need to wrap in the code of these plugins :
'vB Enterprise Translator - Flags'
'vB Enterprise Translator'
'Write guest cache'

if (STYLEID == xx) {
the plugin code above that need to wrap
}

Nb. Change xx wih the styleid that you want to translating
