This is an old tip, revamped. In the past I offered a tip that added Google Translate to top of site using absolute position. And that works fine, except when zooming in/out. This should work better in regards to placement, whereas it will insert the Google Translate code before the Ning Bar Menu Tabs.

Instructions:

  • Add all code to your Custom Code Box via: My Network/Tools/Custom Code
  • Save.
  • If Google Translate gets in the way based on other elements in your Ning Bar, you can adjust the float:left. Locate this code below: div style="float:left;padding-right:20px; You can change the float:left to float:right;padding-left:20px;

 

<style>
#google_translate_element {height:26px!important;margin-top:3px;}
.goog-te-gadget-simple {padding:0px!important;height:24px!important;}
.goog-te-gadget img {float: left;}
.goog-te-menu-value {margin-top:-5px!important;}
</style>

<!-- Google Translate -->
<div id="tmp_translatenbar" style="display:none;">
<div id="google_translate_element"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">// <![CDATA[
function googleTranslateElementInit() {
new google.translate.TranslateElement({
pageLanguage: 'en',
layout: google.translate.TranslateElement.InlineLayout.SIMPLE
}, 'google_translate_element');
}
// ]]></script>
<script src="//translate.google.com/translate_a/element.js?cb=googleTranslateElementInit" type="text/javascript">// <![CDATA[

// ]]></script>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
if (typeof(x$) != 'undefined') {
x$("#xn_bar_menu_tabs").prepend('<div style="float:left;padding-right:20px;" id="translatenbar"></div>');
var t_translatenbarCode = document.getElementById('tmp_translatenbar');
var translatenbarCode = document.getElementById('translatenbar');
translatenbarCode.innerHTML = t_translatenbarCode.innerHTML;
}
</script>
<!-- End Google Translate -->

 

Enjoy,

Jen

Hi Dr Husky,

I just looked at your Custom Code area to see if there was a problem with the code, but I don't see Jen's code in there.  Did you put it in to try it and then take it out?  By the way, I also see an extra </div> right near the bottom - it doesn't belong there because it does not close any open <div> tag.

Best wishes!

"TJ"

Thanks TJ!

Dr. Husky,

I received your private message, thank you. I'm really confused. The code I provided would not work for you? Can you explain what went wrong?

Thanks,

Jen

Sorry for taking so long to reply, I have had many personal problems lately that I walked away from my duties. But now if I'm ready to 100%
Thank you very much for your prompt help, and manages to discover my problem: the problem was that the ningbar hid the translator. Applying a z-index managed to fix it. Now looks great and therefore again to all of you, especially Jen and TJ @ jQueryHelp. They are a great team;)

Brilliant! Thanks Jen!

Hi Glenn, Glad you like it! It's been around for a little while, always nice to see tips resurface. =)
