I've been using Global Translator for two years and had this problem, now I would like to fix it.
I thought the issue was random, but it seems like GT consistently translates all category pages and archive pages (very impressively so, using Google Translate) but not one post has been translated. I did one manually here and uploaded it and that works fairly well - so there's an issue on the server side.

Tags pages are fine too. Posts still untranslated.
From the log:

'Bad translated content'. This is what happens any time it attempts to translate a 'post'. The translated effort is in the log as well and it looks okay. The main difference between the 'bad' one and a 'good' one from the cache is that the 'bad' one alternates <span> tags of source language and target language - for every sentence of the article.
Is the issue that GT doesn't expect to receive content like this or is it that GT expects to remove the source language <span> but encounters some problem with 'posts'?

I might be getting no replies because it's not in the 'Plugins' category - could a moderator move it?

Okay fixed it. A problem with the code - it was assuming that the text '<!--FLAG_BAR_BEGIN-->' would appear in my 'post' pages (I think the correct terminology is 'single-post') - however it doesn't. So I changed the code to look for '<!-- If you\'d like to support WordPress, having the "powered by" link somewhere on your blog is the best way; it\'s our only promotion or advertising. -->' - Now it seems to be running fine.
