You can just select any word or text, press a hotkey and view the translation instantly, and the extension offers quite a few other useful features as well. Mate Translate is a Chrome extension that makes it easier to get translations while browsing the web. There are plenty of online services that you can use, but they aren’t as convenient as many would like. Joomla Custom Fields translation is supported: Since v1.9.0, with the new Speedy engine, it is now possible to translate content from table that uses composite keys like the Joomla Custom Fields for example.While computer translations are far from perfect, they have gotten a lot more accurate in recent years, and things can only get better. Let keep your language files clean and tidy with this functionality. Speedy Translate can also detect malformed language files with incorrect encoding that can break AJAX functionality in some sites which is hard to troubleshoot and debug.ĭuplication Detection: Duplication in language files confuse translators and it also cause extra unnecessary works while translating them.

This feature is seamlessly integrated with our Inline Translate feature which make it very easier and convenient to use. Speedy Translate also has other very useful features:Īutomatic Translation: automatically make a translation suggestion for you, then you can decide whether to use it or not. With Speedy Translate’s INLINE TRANSLATION, you will have that ability, it will save time and avoid confusion for users. Second, when translating dynamic content, there is no User Interface that allows users to work on multiple languages concurrently. And that is what motivated us to create the feature INI TRANSLATE and the CONTEXT TRANSLATION which you can access above. Then user need to edit the INI language file manually, the whole process is not convenient at all. There are two main hassles when building a multilingual site in Joomla!:įirst, when user need to translate static content like a label, a button text, user has to figure out what INI language is storing it and where is the INI language file stored in the file system. The advantage of this option is that it is built-in feature but it creates a lot of duplications. Now each content will be assigned a specific language and they are linked with each other via associations, let say you want to translate your article About us in English to Italian, Japanese and German, you will need to create 03 new articles for those languages and associate them with the original About us article, that means now you will have 04 articles for 04 languages. Option 3: using the core Joomla multilingual feature by defining content’s associations. This extension takes a different approach and it only allows translate what need to be translate (configured via a file call Content Element), that means there will be less duplication and this is a recommended option. Option 2: using a 3rd Joomla! extension called Falang. Option 1 (Recommended): using the new SPEEDY engine (since v1.9.0) with added support for MySQL + PostgreSQL Support translating Joomla Custom Fields To translate dynamic content, with Joomla! there are three popular options: To translate static content, you will need to edit the language file in INI format (.ini). For those who does not know about them, static content refers to all content in your Joomla site that are not stored inside your database but in your file system like language files while dynamic content is stored inside your database like your articles. Speedy Translate will help you to translate static content and dynamic content in Joomla easier and speedier.
