The text must not translate into the box where you write posts or treads

[Ricsca]

Affected version

2.2.13

I reported this bug a long time ago but I see there is no interest in fixing it...
Those who speak another language translate the sites into their language via Google Chrome (or other browsers), in my case into Italian.

When I paste an answer in English into the box to write a tread or post, the text is automatically translated into Italian too...

This doesn't happen with vbulletin or even with smf.
I was hoping that with xf 2.3 you would fix it but it didn't happen...

Why isn't this bag fixed? It's really inconvenient for those who don't read the English forum...

This is nothing to do with XenForo, it's the browser doing the translation. I don't think there's anything you can do to prevent it if you've told the browser to translate the page.

Try adding the translate="no" attribute on an element around the editor, but as XF isn't doing the translating in the first place, you have very likited control over what browsers themselves do.

Su VB SMF PHPBB ecc. il testo incollato non è tradotto anche se il sito è tradotto automaticamente...
