I don't know, however this is what I've discovered so far...

In a round-a-bout way, I believe it could. First one has to register/login on forum board, then go to main page and select language, then return to forum. Yes, that is a non-elegant method.

I say "I believe" because I'm not familiar with all the workings of vBulletin and am not a coder. Only this month did I add the ability for members to join the forum - prior to that visitors could simply download the puzzles without registering.

When I login now and then do the above mentioned round-a-bout I get the following message: "In order to accept POST request originating from this domain, the admin must add this domain to the whitelist."

Whether that means I must add my forum login to the whitelist (whatever that is) or whether the message has something to do with google I haven't a clue. It may be a google translation issue.

My main site runs on Joomla but there is no registration required there, nor is there a login form displayed as they are not required for my purposes. There are "bridges" I understand that will link Joomla and vBulletin logins but I haven't tried them.

Bottom line; the translation works fine across Joomla and vBulletin when visitor not registered but I am not experienced enough to know how to correct "whitelist" issue with registered member and thus provide you a definitive answer. Perhaps someone else with more experience will answer your question.
