A language switcher with Google machine translation into 103 languages: flags, drop-down or pop-up. Indexable translations and manual edits come with the paid plans of the service.
GTranslate is a module by GTranslate Inc. that adds a language switcher to the site and translates pages automatically with Google Translate. It is a quick way to reach foreign visitors without maintaining separate language versions in Joomla by hand.
Features
- Automatic on-the-fly translation between 103 languages, done in the visitor's browser.
- Switcher styles: floating box, drop-down, flags, flags with a drop-down or with language names, and a pop-up.
- Language names in their native script, alternative flags for Quebec, Canada, the USA, Brazil and Mexico.
- Hides the Google top frame and the "Suggest better translation" pop-up.
- The whole page gets translated: menus, articles, modules, component and plugin output.
- Lazy image loading and tracking of language switches in analytics.
Paid features
The paid plans (from $9.99 per month) add search engine indexing of translations, neural translation, manual corrections, /es/ style sub-directories or sub-domains, and translation of URLs and metadata.
