GG_Translate 0.2.19
I’ve just uploaded the latest version of my wordpress translation plugin – GG_Translate. As previous stated, this update adds an administration page to the plugin that allows users to select translation engine order of preference, base language for the blog, the url format for the translation links, and the maximum number of translation links to display.
I have also checked to make sure that the available translations are up-to-date.
In the administration page I’ve addeda link for users to check for updates but I shall be replacing that with an automatic check for updates. Another feature that has been requested is flag icons for the languages, I have started working on this now and I should have a trial version on my blog before too long.
THe latest version can now be downloaded from my downloads page.

[...] 5. GG_Translate by Grin God is another Wordpress plugin that provides site users with links to translate the blog into their own language. The plugin detects which languages the users browser will accept and, if there are any which are different to the blogs published language, it will provide links to translations in those languages. For translations the plugin uses the Google and Altavista Babel translation engines, favouring the Babel engine over the Google engine. If no translations are available for a particular translation a link will not be provided. [...]
This may be an obvious question, but, for example I login with a compute set to the French language, I am presented with a link which allows me to pick a service to translate the information and no link will appear if translation is not required.
Where does this link appear and what does it look like?
Thanks
Hi billybob,
Sorry for the slow reply. In order to get GG_Translate working in your blog there are two things you must do. Firstly install the plugin, which it sounds like you have done.
The second is to add some code to your theme, probably in sidebar.php if it is a standard style theme, to output the translate links. Some example code is given in the readme.txt in the zip file, but for reference it is something like:
<?php if (GG_Translate::can_provide_links()) { ?><h3>Translate</h3>
<ul class="links">
<?php GG_Translate::translate_links(); ?>
</ul>
<?php } ?>
At the moment the GG_Translate plugin does not have wordpress widgets support, but now that I have upgraded my own blog to Wordpress 2.2 this is something that I am considering adding.
Hi Gringgod
I’ve added the following code to the sidebar :-
Translate
But unfortunately I can’t see the translation language icons, how come??
Appreciate your full explanation on this.
Thanks
Vincent
The code I added to the sidebar

[...] GG_Translate WordPress Plugin Dieses Plugin hat die wohl größte Sprachvielfalt, erzeugt jedoch nach aktivieren des Plugins ein paar Fehler in dem Optionen-Menu, so daß ich es nicht verwenden konnte. Hier ist man wohl noch nicht auf Wordpress 2.3 eingestellt. Also Plugin deaktiviert und nächstes ausprobiert. [...]

Hi,
will there be the widget-able wordpress-plugin someday? It would be nice to have a translator without google (e.g. using Promt or Altavista Babelfish). And a translator working with WP 2.7.
To be honest I wasn’t planning on creating a widget version. There is already a widget available for Babelfish and it is possible to use a html widget to put a google translate gadget on your side bar. If you have specific requirements that those don’t address then let me know and I’ll see if I can help out.
