DJ's Translate a Thread in a Google Pop-Up Window
Developer Last Online: Jun 2020 
This modification is in the archives.
This template modifications adds a drop-down menu to all your threads which allows users to translate that thread in a new window using Google's Language Tools.
======================================== NOTE: As this is a merely a template edit, vBulletin version isn't really going to be an issue. ======================================== When I first released this for vB 3.6, there seemed to be some confusion as to how this works. Let me clear up any confusion from the start. This is just a simple template modification that redirects you to a translation service from Google.com. It's some links and some pictures designed to help international users communicate more easily. It does not auto-detect what language your forum is in, nor is it a way to browse and post in your forum in another language. It's simply what is described: A way to translate a thread from one base language to another set language. And it also can only support the languages that Google supports, which are the ones listed. Hopefully I've redesigned this mod to be more clear about how it works. NOTE: In order for Google to translate your threads, they must be able to crawl your forum pages. So Guests must be able to read your forum in order for this mod to work. Updates 08-19-08 (Updated to include the new languages from Google's Language Tools. Upgrades For those upgrading from the vB 3.6 version, click here. Screenshot  Supported Languages  العربية (Arabic) Български (Bulgarian) 中国 (Chinese - Simplified)  中國 (Chinese - Traditional) Hrvatski (Croatian) Česky (Czech) Dansk (Danish) Nederlands (Dutch) English (This is merely a direct link to the Google Translator) Suomi (Finnish) Français (French) Ελληνική (Greek) Deutsch (German) हिन्दी (Hindi) Italiano (Italian) 日本語 (Japanese) 한국어 (Korean) Norsk (Norwegian) Polski (Polish) Português (Portuguese) Română (Romanian) Русский (Russian) Español (Spanish) Svenska (Swedish)Live Demo Look for the "Translate" drop-down menu beside the "Display Modes" drop-down. Installation Installation is simple. To add this to your forum requires two edits to your SHOWTHREAD template. Step 1. To access your SHOWTHREAD template, go to Admin CP >>> Styles & Templates >>> Style Manager >>> "Expand one of your styles" >>> Showthread Templates >>> SHOWTHREAD and look for:
Below it add:
Step 2. (The following step will add the "English to..." translation links only. For those that want additional language options, see Post 2 of this thread.) Next find:
Below it add:
Step 3. Next thing to do is upload the flag images (in attached zip file) to the buttons folder in your images directory. Make sure you upload them to the right one. For some forums, this might simply be images/buttons/. But if your using a custom skin, this might be in the folder holding your style (skin) images, such as [stylename]/buttons/. It will need to be in that directory for each skin you make the template changes to. Download Now Only licensed members can download files, Click Here for more information. Screenshots

Additional "[Language] to..." Options (Step 2A)
If you need something other than English as your base language, follow the links below to the language you need and add any of those blocks of code just before these lines:
Or if you want to use one or more of these INSTEAD of the "English to..." option, you'll need to paste your code in between the <table></table> tags, replacing everything in between:

Hey, M-Tuning, thanks for that. Saves me some steps.
Don't forget, though, that in each one I posted I included the home language as a link to the Google Translator. So Dutch wouldn't translate to Arabic unless you change that first link, like so: Don't forget to follow the instructions for Step 2A. Dutch to...

Upgrade Instructions
To all the users of my 2.00 modification, please refer to these instructions in order to upgrade. Upgrading is even easier then before.
UPGRADE INSTRUCTIONS To access your SHOWTHREAD template, go to your Admin CP >>> Styles & Templates >>> Style Manager >>> [Expand Your Style] >>> Show Thread Templates >>> SHOWTHREAD. STEP 1. Simply search for this block of code in your SHOWTHREAD template:
Change the one instance of the word Language to Translate. STEP 2. Look for everything starting with this line
And ending with this line:
And replace all of it with this:
And your done. I will be adding additional language options like I had in the previous modification to Post 2. But because Google now translates the full spectrum of their available languages to the full spectrum of their available languages, the previous manner I had just isn't practical and wont fit into one post. So I will be adding [Language] to... options one by one as time permits. If you have a request, I'll move it to the front of the list. But until then I'm jut going thought them one language at a time. Thanks, and I hope you enjoy this update.
