Dear Alex, In order to use GTranslate Pro on IIS server you need to install the jooomla plugin or you should convert apache .htaccess rules to web.config . Here is an example <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <configuration> <system.webServer> <rewrite> <rules> <rule name="GTranslate Rule 1" stopProcessing="true"> <match url="^([a-z]{2}|zh-CN|zh-TW)/([a-z]{2}|zh-CN|zh-TW)/(.*)$" ignoreCase="false" /> <action type="Redirect" redirectType="Permanent" url="/{R:1}/{R:3}" /> </rule> <rule name="GTranslate Rule 2" stopProcessing="true"> <match url="^([a-z]{2}|zh-CN|zh-TW)/([a-z]{2}|zh-CN|zh-TW)$" ignoreCase="false" /> <action type="Redirect" redirectType="Permanent" url="/{R:1}/" /> </rule> <rule name="GTranslate Rule 3" stopProcessing="true"> <match url="^([a-z]{2}|zh-CN|zh-TW)/(.*)$" ignoreCase="false" /> <conditions> <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsFile" ignoreCase="false" negate="true" /> </conditions> <action type="Rewrite" url="/gtranslate/translate.php?lang={R:1}&amp;url={R:2}" appendQueryString="true" /> </rule> <rule name="GTranslate Rule 4" stopProcessing="true"> <match url="^([a-z]{2}|zh-CN|zh-TW)$" ignoreCase="false" /> <action type="Rewrite" url="/gtranslate/translate.php?lang={R:1}" appendQueryString="true" /> </rule> <rule name="GTranslate Rule 5" stopProcessing="true"> <match url="^index\.php$" ignoreCase="false" /> <action type="None" /> </rule> <rule name="GTranslate Rule 6" stopProcessing="true"> <match url="." ignoreCase="false" /> <conditions> <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsFile" ignoreCase="false" negate="true" /> <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsDirectory" ignoreCase="false" negate="true" /> </conditions> <action type="Rewrite" url="/index.php" /> </rule> </rules> </rewrite> </system.webServer> </configuration>

Hello and thanks for the quick reply 1.)Where can i find the Plugin for joomla 2 how to convert .htaccess to web.config ( u mean to change the rules that we right into .htaccess with this one above)? thanks again

Hi, 1. You should find it in the package after unzipping. It contains the plugin for all platforms. 2. Please read my previous post.

thanks again for the guick reply.. i change the code in web.config with this one above and now it is working i dont get an 404 error, but it doesnt translate all the language i have only works with ar and it why?

Hi, Sometimes it may stop translating to not exceed the limits set by Google. The limit.txt is intended for saving the translation traffic. It has a timestamp in it and it expires. If you wait, it will expire and the translation process will continue. You can delete limit.txt which is in the gtranslate cache folder and try again.

i delete the limit.txt and the i have the same issue its translate only the 2 of the 4 languages and in the other two its translate only the text in a module...

Hi, Please try to enable the GTranslate debug mode and check debug.txt file to understand what the problem is.
