  • Hi thulika,

    I think that you might be referring to the Google Translate bar that comes packed with Google Chrome. You can disable this feature by doing the following:

    1. In Google Chrome, go to Settings > (Advanced) Content settings > Google Translate.
    
    2. Slide the Translate switch to the OFF position.

    Hopefully that solves the problem for you! Thanks for your question 🙂

    Thank you for your suggestion. I went to the Advanced setting but could not find “translate switch”

    There was a language and preferred input languages and underneath a box and a line “offer to translate that are not in a language you read.”
    Apparently, if I check the box, it would translate. I left it unchecked.
    I am not sure it helped. When I tested it, I saw translated page.
    I hope this is not too confusing.
    Thanks again.

    Hi thulika,

    Maybe try clearing all cookies in your browser. Close out the browser, then come back to see if translation message appears. My hope is that it will not come back.

    Hello Rob Myrick,
    That could be the problem. I will try again
    Thanks so much

    Hello Rob Myrick,

    Unfortunately, the translation continues. I heard there is a html code, something like … notranslate.
    Can you tell the exact code and where to insert it? I have been running the blog for 7 years not and there are hundreds of posts.

    Thank you
    Thulika

    Hi thulika,

    Yes by adding

    class="notranslate"

    to one of your HTML elements would defintely prevent translation. I’m not sure if it would prevent the message bar from showing, but it would ensure that no one could see translation (I think, and we should just try it).

    Would you like me to add for you, or do you think that you can handle adding this?

    Thanks, Rob

    Actually, try this code by adding to the <head> of your website. I think it’s going to do the job for you:

    <meta name="google" content="notranslate" />

    🙂

    Rob Myrick,
    This is what I was looking for. Thanks a million.
    Yes, I can add the code to the header
    Bless you
