None

I'm definitely going to look into adding this mod. I'm just waiting to remove a mod or two so that I don't go over my self-imposed mod limit

Ive imported the product but it doesnt work.

[Coroner]

What have you done ?
TemplateEdits or TMS ?
Uploaded the file(s) ?

[akulion]

hi,
i installed this, however the text does not get translated.

When I highlight the text the translation box appears, but after selecting the language and pressing "go" it just shows a tab saying "close window"...any idea why?

One thing that comes to mind is that I did not do anything with the included language files...do i have to do something with those too? if yes then please guide me thanks

[SuperTaz]

Edit: N/M. I see it now. Thanks. Installed.

[Barakat]

its a nice hack ,,, but if it works without the right or left click it will be better

like if you can make it with an option to work by another way ,,

thanks

[TheWhite]

isn't this hack supported anymore?

[hasepapa]

for me it just shows the window! No text. Even if I choose only one word.

[Georg]

Works perfectly for me, thank you. (manual install , 3.7)
