How this module works
alinio is an external service. The module adds the alinio widget to all pages of your script, so that visitors can read the content in their own language.
- Add your website in the alinio dashboard
- List all domains of the website under "Allowed domains"
- Enter the site key in the module settings
- Choose where the language switcher appears
When you save the settings, the module loads the languages of your website from alinio and shows them below the site key. Content that is marked with translate="no" or with the class notranslate stays untranslated.
Settings
- Site key of your website from the alinio dashboard
- Position of the language switcher: top left, top right, bottom left, bottom right, inline above the content, hidden, or the setting of the alinio dashboard
- Container: an optional CSS selector, the language switcher is then shown inside this element
Privacy
- Load on click: the widget is only loaded when a visitor chooses a language. Until then nothing is loaded from alinio.
- Load on click and confirmation: a notice first tells the visitor that an external service is used. The widget is only loaded when the visitor agrees.
- The module suggests a matching text for your privacy policy
- The widget sets no cookies
