Forum Archive - Better use of API

How do I set up Gtranslate to not translate in all available languages and just use the major half-dozen languages that I need? Now that Google is paid, I want to maximize my primary languages. Thank you.

Hi, Yes, you can disable the languages you don't want from the language selector and your sitemap.txt. BTW. You don't need to pay Google to use GTranslate.

1. Thanks. I will eliminate the unwanted languages from the sitemap.txt. 2. However... according to http://code.google.com/apis/language/tr ... icing.html, google is charging US $20 per million characters? There is no longer a courtesy limit. Is that NOT correct? 3. Do I even need to set the google API for translation? Thanks,

Yes, however they provide Google Translate Element for free which uses non official API which is free. So you don't need to pay to use the translations unless you want to use the official Google Translate API v2.
