Adding Google Translation to your site

You can reach a larger audience by adding the Google Translate Widget to your site. Adding the widget is easy, and allows your site to be translated into more than 100 different languages!

There are several ways you can add translation to your pages, but in each case you will need to paste the following module code:

<div style="margin-left: 40px; font-family: Courier New;"><!-- Google Translate Widget -->
  <div id="google_translate_element">
  </div>
  <script>
      function googleTranslateElementInit()
      {
       new google.translate.TranslateElement({pageLanguage: 'en'}, 'google_translate_element');
    }
  </script>
  <script src="//translate.google.com/translate_a/element.js?cb=googleTranslateElementInit">
  </script>
  <!-- /Google Translate Widget -->
</div>

Method 1: Template Plugin Manager

  1. In the left main menu hover over Control Panel . Click on Templates
  2. Then click Plugins on the template you wish to add the Pop-up too.

    Note: A new window will open displaying your templates framework and all the available Plugin positions on this template.
  3. You can also add this code using the "Source View" in any existing HTML content plugins. Example if you wanted to add this to your existing header or footer plugins.
  4. Or you can add this as it's own Plugin using the Other-Custom Plugin type.
  5. Paste your widget code into it.
  6. Save and Publish. All pages that use that template will display the Google Translation Widget in that location.

Method 2: Edit the Page Template(s)If you have FTP access, and know a little about HTML, you can simply edit the appropriate page templates yourself, pasting the Google Translation Widget code in where you want it. This is a good option for templates when you want translation to be available on a permanent basis.
