Also are included are tabs to place at top-right, top-left, bottom-left, bottom-right.
There is also an auto option which places no widget but if the end-users browser language is different to your site language the Google translation bar appears. Thus a totally unintrusive option for most of your site users.
Translates over 50 languages.
Provides translations in most European, Asian and some African languages. Most major markets covered.
This module has backend language localization for English, French and German.
No need to register.

I tried the main auto language extensions and this one works the best.
Gives me several different options for display and best of all doesn't break my top menu like gtranslate. (which seems to be a common thing)

I used this recently for a client & was relieved to have found a translator that was both simple to install and required little effort to implement. The others I tried before were fairly straightforward, but they ruined the layout of the website and there was nothing I could do to fix it.
This one doesn't do that. It works well and won't break your template.

Not support punjabi Language (for indian punjabi people)
Owner's reply
Punjabi is not available because it is not provided by Google for these widgets. From time to time Google updates their selection of languages so it may be that it will become available at some future date.Two other Indian languages are supplied. Hindi and Urdu.
This extension does exactly what it says, is extremely user friendly, works instantly and is backed up by support that is quick and thorough.
If I could give it an even higher rating I would.
I contacted the developer to find out if I could limit the options available in the module to only English and German and he got back to me in no time with exactly what I needed.

This words perfect, I'm happy I finally found one I really liked and was easy to use. Thank you so much!
I don't get a LOT of traffic to my website that doesn't come through in English, but I get a little, so just wanted a very basic, very easy, quick to set up page translator for the few folks who might stick around longer if the site were in their own language. Assuming the Google translations are accurate (and if they're not, it's a google problem, not a program problem), this one does the job. Don't really care much for the non-google designs, but since I'll be using the google translator anyway, no harm no foul. :)
Good module. Nice to find exactly what I was looking for in the first program I tried.

I just spent the entire day trying to configure JF (Y'all know which one that is) and seeing as I am not in the business of translating anything into other languages (mostly because I ONLY speak English) I finally un-installed it and went searching for one that would just let me get back to work on my site and then I found this module.
Now I'm wondering why I wasted an entire day on this because with this module I got what I wanted... A simple translator for my site & a whole bunch of peace of mind knowing that anyone who wants to use my site should be able to, now.
I just wish I'd found this module this morning!!!
From download to install to configuration I'm counting less than five (5) minutes!!! Compare that to an entire day and tell me which one you want to use.
If you need a translator on your website and need to get back to doing what you do best then this one is what you need to start with... Don't waist your precious time on anything else. This one right here will do EVERYTHING you're wanting it to do AND MORE!
Shalom,
Frank

I was hunting round your site for installation instructions, but didn't need any. Just installed the module and it worked a treat. Top Job!
I think your Module is by far the best way to add multilingual functionality to a Joomla! 1.5.
I have tried several others when building sites for my company's clients - but this one is by far the best as it is simple to manage and easy to use. I think the Google widget option is best - more language options.

Well this is also a nice module: really functional, quick, and not dangerous for layout.
At first I tried to use Multilang M17n (tested on Win2k3 Server, Apache 2.2.11 Webserver and MySQL 5.1), and only by installing it was able to mess up all my code! The author says that it's my configuration fault, so I wonder if your Multi Trans works fine because it's well written, or because it's a complete error!! Anyway, apart jokes, your module is really well working and easy to use; only 1 issue:
user should be able to adapt Google logo to menu size, because it's all in a row, and too long! Anyway Google frame works better now, so it's always a nice compromise.
Nice job!!
