Cannot verify the issue, it works for me.

Hi Edward,
All the other shortcodes are working wright, and I can't find the solution. The widget is working fine, but the shortcode act like plain text. I thought could be something about rewrite, but if gadget is working fine I think is not the problem. Any idea?

[Edvard]

You can try [gtranslate] or [GTranslate] may be you have a typo?

Good evening,

same issue here... I added shortcode [GTranslate] to my left sidebar, but only the plain text is showing up. Also tried [gtranslate] after I found this thread.

The widget itself is completely killing my sidebars, so I decided to leave it off my bars and use the shortcode instead.

Inside an article the shortcode works properly, just not in the sidebars...

Example: http://www.mikaversum.com/blog

Any idea would be appreciated

Cheers,

You need to use the widget in your sidebars instead. Enable it and let me know, so I can see what it breaks.

Ok, just moved it into the right sidebar.

OK, there is a conflict with your CSS stylesheet:

1. You need to specify that #left h2 a {color:#ffffff;}
2. #left a.gflag img {padding:1px !important;}

You can place the code inside style.css file of your template and it will solve the issue.

Hi edo,

I added the code in different ways to my stylesheet but without any change.

[Edvard]

I think that you forgot about your browser cache

Refresh your site with Ctrl + F5

Unfortunately not To make sure I re.tried, also in different browser but situation is still the sam

Here my css for the left sidebar:

/* Left Sidebar */

#left {
width: 179px;
float:left;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
overflow: hidden;
}

#left h2 {
color:#ffffff;
background: #65111e;
font-family: verdana, "Microsoft Sans Serif", Times, serif;
font-size: 8pt;
padding: 3px 6px;
margin: 0px;
margin: 0 0 10px 0;
border-bottom: 1px solid #fff;
}

#left h2 a {color:#ffffff;}

#left p {margin:0 6px 0 12px; padding: 0;}

#left a {color: #65111e; text-decoration: none; margin: 0; padding: 0; line-height: 14pt;}
#left a:hover {color: #333; text-decoration: underline;}
#left a.gflag img {padding:1px !important;}

#left ul{
list-style-type:none;
margin:0 0 12px 0;
padding:0;
}

#left ul li{
list-style-type:none;
margin:0 0 0 12px;
padding:0;
}

#left ul ul{
margin:0;
padding:0;
}

#left ul ul li{
list-style-type:square;
list-style-position: inside;
margin:0 0 0 12px;
padding:0;
color: #65111e;
}



#left ul li.recentcomments {
margin: 0 12px 0 12px;
}

#left ul li.recentcomments a{
line-height: 12pt;
}

I have refreshed and it looks nice now.

However I have just checked and it doesn't work, since you have turned on the Analytics feature without having Google analytics installed on your site and also didn't select a correct main language for your site.

May be I do not understand what is the issue?

I have Google Analytics running, but just as code on the content page. I can try to install an extra plugin to test. Which one do you want me to install - the Google Analytics for WordPress by Jost de Val?

[Edvard]

When you will have the _gaq code installed on your site then you will turn on that feature in GTranslate. But meanwhile, what are you trying to get, were you able to get a nice look or not?

Are you able to see the changes when you access http://www.mikaversum.com/blog/wp-conte ... /style.css from your browser?

[Flash]

I do see the changes when I refresh and get the side code displayed... Also I see href="javascript:doGTranslate('de|en')" title="English" class="gflag"

where is this class "gflag" defined? I did not found any definition for it, so I played around with my CSS and the code snipet you gave me before... Probably an idea to have a deeper look into this...

[Edvard]

You can use FireBug on FireFox and you will be able to play and find the answers to your questions.

Nevertheless, thanks for your help anyway... I will play around with it when I'm on nightshift. I'll let you know when I find out something senseful
