    Hello guys,
    I hope i posted in the right section of the forums.
    I’m wondering if there’s a way to instantly translate live chat in any chat plugin ?
    example is : a client from UK speaking only English decided to chat with site owner from china speaking only chinese

    client: “some English text”
    site owner: “receives Chinese translation of what the client typed”

    Is this possible ? is there any plugin or service that do this for live chat ?

    Sorry for the slow reply. The Google Translate engine has an API to translate arbitrary strings to another language. I’m not aware of any chat app that has integrated this, but it doesn’t sound too difficult to intercept chat input before it is displayed and run it through the API. Maybe some app has integrated it, IDK.
