Extension Package For Magento 1.X

FREE

Provided as it is. No support.

Business Issue:

Magento by default doesn’t have translate option for the whole website. It’s quite complicated to create different versions for your shop. You may face with such problems as what language to choose, where to find a writer, how to manage with SEO in a case of having content in different languages and how to redirect users to relevant version. What if you have 10-20 users per month who speak Chinese, German, Russian or any other language. It seems to be not a good way to spend money by translating the whole website. But these users can become customers, so they require a proper attitude.

Translate extension features:

give an ability to choose a design of links (flag images or drop-down)
support more than 50 languages available
change the text for the whole shop
move it wherever you want

Instruction >

You should get the piece of code from Google module at first.

Go to Google Translate and click Website Translator setup wizard.
Specify URL of your website and default language.
Click “Next” and choose languages, that you would like to use at your website.
IMPORTANT: In “The display mode” field select Only dropdown.
Click “Get the code”.

Then paste this peace of code in the code of your pages.

Install our Translate extension via Connect Manager.

Left the “Google Customization Code” field in Magento Admin area (System -> Configuration ->{MagenMagic}Google Web Translator) as it is or put there random numbers (but don’t left it empty).

Set flag icons:

Add in the <default> tag of googlewebtranslator.xml file this code (it commented out):

<reference name="store_language">
<block type="core/template" name="gwt_links" template="magenmagic/googlewebtranslator/links.phtml"/>
</ Reference>

After that in the template of this bar (languages.phtml file) it is necessary to paste the code in the right place:
<? Php echo $ this-> getChildHtml ('gwt_links')?>

Remove flag icons:

To remove top bar, add css to your style.css file or any existing css file

.goog-te-banner-frame.skiptranslate {display: none !important;} body { top: 0px !important; } </b>

P.S.

if your developer will need to make any changes at design, or set up language selectors in any other place – please, take a look at magenmagic/googlewebtranslator/links.phtml. And to set it up in any template you will have to use this part of code: <getChildHtml(‘gwt_links’) ?>
