Description

Do you need a simple way to add Google Translate to your WordPress site? If WordPress security restrictions prevent you from embedding translation scripts, this plugin is the solution.

The Ls Gtrans Widget adds a select box to your sidebar, allowing visitors to translate the current page into over 25 European languages using Google Translate. Once a user selects a language, the translation opens in a new tab at Google Translate. The original language is auto-detected.

Key Features:

  • Over 25 European languages supported.
  • Multisite ready.
  • No coding required—just drag and drop the widget to your sidebar.

Installation

  1. Upload the ls_gtrans_widget folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory, or install it directly via the WordPress plugin repository.

  3. Go to your Widgets page (Appearance > Widgets) and drag the Translation in Google widget to your desired sidebar or widget area.
  4. Customize the widget title if needed, and you’re done!
