Would be great to have the option of inserting a translation button into email so clients could translate English text into Spanish!

A reader in Japan said she thought she used to be able to press a button to get our newsletter translated into Japanese but now can't find it. I can't see anywhere a person can ask for a translation. Is it possible? Thanks.

Hello @starleya66,

Thank you for reaching out to us with this idea! 

Would you be able to share more on what you would like to see? Where would you want to see something like this? Are you looking for google translate to just convert the content of your email into a different language?

All while a translate button linking to google is ok for somethings. Google translate is not that accurate when you need specific 100% accurate information to be translated. It may take a little more work on your part but just create separate campaigns with each language you want and then grab the url for each campaign and hyperlink them with a button that says click here for Spanish as an example. That way you can control the translation to make sure it is saying what you think it is.

Hello,

 

Please include the option to add Google Translate Service to the email as a button where you can select any language to translate.

At the Small Business Center we use Constant Contact to send our newsletters. We would like an option to translate the newsletter to Spanish. This could be in the form of a "view in Spanish" button .

Some of our clients are requesting emails in Spanish. Is there a way to do this?

Hi @MCDPCOMM at this time there is not a translation tool available in our system. It is however a feature request we are continuing to track through this thread. The more requests we receive in this thread, the higher a priority it can be given.

I am also needing a translation button. This might cause me to end my 7 year relationship with your company due to the pressing need.

We need translation into many languages, not just Spanish. Parents in our school district speak nearly 50 languages other than English. Google Translate would be a HUGE help. Please add it to Constant Contact e-newsletters. Thank you!
