translator changing text without translation

Ok, I discovered something…On initial page load ( I used a different browser) the staff member’s name is correct.
I see this in code:

<header>
    <h1>
        Sean Rhoades
    </h1>
</header>

When I select a translation (English or Spanish) it changes the name to Oades???

<header>
    <h1>
        <font>
            <font>
                Sean Oades
            </font>
        </font>
    </h1>
</header>

Hi,

That’s a Google thing. I went to the main site and got the same results.

https://translate.google.com/

I found this site which might be helpful. I’ve never tries this so can’t say whether or not it will work.

Hope it helps.

Cool, I’ll check it out…sorry I didnt even think to check Google ??

Right on, apostlepoe!

Yes, use that to prevent translation of certain text, it works like a charm.

robinsonjas, please let us know how it goes!

hmm…still does it
his staff page contents is this:
<span class="e;notranslate"e;>Sean Rhoades</span>
but Google is still translating it…I’m not even sure if it’ll work for the header, but I stuck the <span> there too

…got it…
class="notranslate"

<span class=”notranslate”>Sean Rhoades</span>
..even works on h1

Awesome, yes I don’t understand what the e; was there for in the example above.

I’m glad it works!

Thanks for using the plugin – vote or leave a review if you want!
