Screenshots
^^^^^^^^^^^

Well, ok the translation of the header did not really worked, but it's
not a problem of the extension, it's because Google didn't knew the
word.


.. _Users-manual:

Users manual
------------

It's so easy. Just click on “Create a copy for translation (language
xy)”. If the combination of your default language and your target
language is listed above, Google will translate every localizable
field of your content element for you. This works for any kind of
content-element (e.g. tt\_news).


.. _Configuration:

Configuration
-------------

Nothing to configure - ... yet.


.. _Quality-of-service:

Quality of service
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

For a service i'ts nice to know under which conditions it will be
preferred to another extension. Sadly, depending on the service
architecture, we cannot rate every single translation-pair (language
to languge) but just the whole extension.

Since there are no other extensions now, I cannot compare and will
start with a weighting of:

**'priority' => 50'quality' => 50**

This might later be adjusted...


.. _Known-problems:

Known problems
--------------

- It might happen, that google changes it's UI. Well, then this
  extension wont work anymore because it cannot recognize the
  inputfields. If this happens to you, please try to get an update for
  this extension, I'll fix it as soon as I can.

- Problems with specialchars (stuff like quotes and umlauts). This will
  hopefully be fixed soon ... :) hey this is an alpha version.

- There are some cache-files not cleaned up correctly after a
  translation. Nothing dangerous, but just unnessesary.


.. _To-Do-list:

To-Do list
----------

\- Fix the “Known problems”

\- Nothing further. You got a nice idea? Contact me!
