All you need to do is add a custom code to the start of the body tag and embed a code for the language switcher. Additionally, ensure you have completed the following steps:
You can access Project Settings by the top-left hamburger menu. Next, navigate to the Custom Code tab.
Paste the following code into the "Head Code" area:
<link href="https://unpkg.com/globalseo/dist/translate.css" rel="stylesheet">
<script
src="https://unpkg.com/globalseo/dist/translate.js"
data-globalseo-key="YOUR_API_KEY"
data-use-browser-language="true"
data-dynamic-translation="false"
data-original-language="en"
data-allowed-languages="de, es, ru, id, hi, zh, ja"
data-exclude-classes=""
></script>
Configuration:
YOUR_API_KEY
with the actual API key obtained from your project. This is crucial for enabling the translation services.data-original-language
: Set this attribute to your website's primary language code (e.g., en
for English, fr
for French).data-allowed-languages
: Configure this according to your project's requirements. List the language codes (e.g., en, fr, de
) that you wish to support on your site.For more settings, please visit: GitHub
Optional Configuration:
data-use-browser-language
: By default, this is set to automatically translate the website based on the user's browser language. If you prefer to disable this feature, set it to false
.data-exclude-classes
: Specify any CSS class names that should not be translated by the service. This is particularly useful for elements such as chatbots, which may not require translation. List the classes separated by commas (e.g., chatbot, no-translate
).Add the following line of code somewhere on your website. We recommend including it inside the navigation.

You can switch languages simply by adding the URL parameter: "?lang=LANG_CODE". For example:
<div class="globalseo-exclude">
<a href="?lang=en">EN</a>
<a href="?lang=de">DE</a>
</div>
After the page is published, check your website's URL and select a language from the language selector. The page is now being translated, this might take a view minutes.
If you want to exclude text from being translated, just add "globalseo-exclude" as a class to the parent element. All Texts inside that element will not be translated.
