How to add Google Translate to your website

Want to make your website multilingual, but don't want to do all the translating manually? Then your best bet is to embed Google Translate directly into your website! Google Translate allows you to instantly translate your website into 60+ languages.

# Step 1
Go to https://translate.google.com/manager/website/ and sign in to your Google account when you are prompted to. Click on the "Add to your website now" button on the right-hand side.Then follow the instructions to complete the process and get code that you need to insert onto your website.

# Step 2
Once you get the code that you need to insert onto your website.
This needs to be pasted into a new Widget/HTML element. Choose where you want the translator dropdown to show up on your website (we suggest adding it to the Sidebar), add a Widget / HTML element to that part of your page, then paste the widget code into the new element.

Take attention in pasting the code, you need to put {literal} before the code and {/literal} at the end. This is needed to avoid error with the smarty template system.

Example:

{literal}
... google translate code here...
{/literal}
