Translation on the Main Page of Microsoft Tech Community

Silver Contributor

I am seeing these days that the content which is written in other languages is not getting converted into English on the main page of Microsoft Tech Community. Please resolve this issue or add a feature in order to make things easy for the users.2020-05-11.png

       我也出现了此问题(在版块里也出现了),我希望这能够被修复。事实上还有一个问题:社区里自带的翻译不能将所有的帖子翻译为我所使用的语言,我希望这能够被改变。图片能说明这个问题:

Thanks for posting, this is not actually a problem, per say, the language translation system we use has no auto detect and so it assumes if your profile language is set to English that you are going to write your post in English.

 

If you then write your post in Spanish, for example, and someone who speaks German comes in to read it. The Language Translation system will try to change your post from English (the language your profile is set to) to German (the language the person who is trying to read its profile is set to)... except you wrote your post in Spanish and thus it fails.

 

Hopefully we can make it smarter in the next iteration but hopefully this goes some way to explaining why you see that
