Sounds like some sort of plugin preventing the connection if I was to guess.

I suppose another solution to using this might be to clone your main theme as a child style (so that any changes made to the parent are made to child as well) and name it multi-language. Make that style available on the style selector and only use this translator on that style, not the default.

If a guest visits and see this style and selects it, they would then be given the option to change language.

Just an idea of course. ;)

That's an excellent idea ... :)

Hi Infopop.

Got an odd one for you.

A user on my site is claiming that ever since I installed this modification that it loads a toolbar on his browser?!?!

Supposedly it only happens on my site and doesn't show up when he is browsing other sites?

Ask him to grab a screenshot that you can post here, for fun, to take a peek. There are no popups added to this from Google that I'm aware of.

Unfortunately the user is not very computer literate but has pasted the following he gets on the screen, I've googled the text and found nothing and I've installed every damn toolbar on the planet and can not replicate it. :)

Infopro, I would love to have this right below the header or somewhere at the top of the forum so every visitor would see it. How do I do this?

Thanks,

Margaret

From what I can make out of that message, it is indeed from Google, if I was to guess.

Something about timing out. Is this user on a dialup connection or old computer maybe? No clues, but if this continues for this user and others you might try my suggestion above to hide it from some user groups.

I can't really comment on the code for how this works or Googles servers responses of course. I have nothing to do with Google. I'm just adding some code from google to a forum. If that code from Google does not work properly, not much I can do except to suggest removing this, or hide it for specific user groups. If a user is bothered by it, add them to a special addon usergroup that can't see it, for example.

Shouldn't be too much trouble, point me to exactly where you'd like to see it.
