This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
You are re-developing a platform on Buddyboss and need to offer users the ability to click on a link to translate content, similar to Instagram or Facebook. Additionally, you are looking to integrate a Basque language API into the WPML engine.
Solution:
For integrating the Basque language, we recommend using Google Translate, which supports Basque. You can find more information on supported languages here: Language Overview.
Regarding the functionality of 'live translation' similar to Facebook, currently, we are not aware of any Buddyboss site that offers this feature. Translations typically need to be prepared first in a comment or similar format before being available on a translated endpoint. Unlike platforms like Facebook, WPML requires translations from an original to the translated Post-IDs.

If this solution does not resolve your issue or seems outdated, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If further assistance is needed, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum.

Background of the issue:
We are currently re-developing a platform on Buddyboss and need to offer the possibility for users to click on a link to translate content, similar to Instagram or Facebook. We also need to integrate a Basque language API into the WPML engine. We are following Buddyboss and WPML documentation.

Symptoms:
We haven't seen this functionality with WPML

Questions:
Is it possible to offer users the ability to click on a link to translate content like on Facebook?
Can we integrate a Basque language API into the WPML engine?
Have you seen this implemented with WPML and Buddyboss/press before?

Hi there,

fgor the Basque language, you can use Google Translate as it supports Basque. Here's the link to the language overview: hidden link">Language Overview.

Regarding "live translation," I’m currently not aware of any Buddyboss website offering this feature. Translations typically need to be done first as a comment or similar format before being served on a translated endpoint, unlike platforms like Facebook. We always require a translation from an original to the translated Post-IDs.

Best regards,
Marcel
