GTranslate not working at all

[arbiter]

No effect when flag icons are selected, nor when language is selected from drop-down menu. Please visit www.metacred.com and advise how to fix? Thanks!

Hi,

Your site doesn't load. Please fix the issue and let us know.

BTW. Did you check our troubleshooting? troubleshooting-gtranslate-free-t370.html

Not sure why you're having problems loading the site. It loads fine on our end. Please try again? Thanks.

And yes, I did try trouble-shooting first.

Specifically:

I am using Google Analytics, but I have not selected that option in GTranslate (and never had).

I am using the On the Fly method of translation; when I uncheck the "Load jQuery library" option (which is what I'm assuming your troubleshooting page means when it says "unload the jQuery library"), GTranslate still doesn't work--and the lack of a jQuery library shows up as a page error.

Related question: Is there an advantage to using the "On Fly" rather than "Google Default" method, aside from the flag icons? Any substantive difference in content?

I have the same problem. Not sure how long it's been like that as I didn't check it after upgrading Wordpress to 3.3.1. http://www.valleyandvalecommunityarts.co.uk I did troubleshoot but no response to clicking flags or dropdowns. I deactivated the most obvious plugin culprits but no response from your plugin.

I visited Metacred and their problem looks the same. I'm running GTranslate version 1.0.32

Thanks

update: also not working on one of my other sites http://www.blackcatweb.net and this uses different plugins to the other.

Solution? Damn!

Google has discontinued its free translation API service:
http://code.google.com/apis/language/tr ... rview.html

The closest alternate solution is to use Google translation with their widget, so you can put this code into a text widget or something like that:
http://translate.google.com/translate_tools

. . . which brings me back to my last question: Is there any advantage to using On Fly rather than Google Default?

With the complete lack of support received from GTranslate (through here or email), I have disabled it and directly embedded Google Translation into my site header--a much more elegant and functional solution.

After this discussion I understood that you are not using the latest version of GTranslate. Please read this: update-required-continue-using-the-free-version-t1250.html and update it.
