  Hello admin !
  I was wondering if there was any news for the google translate widget or any kind of good translator widget that would be compatible with wordpress.com blogs. I really think that it would be a prolific add, I’m sure I’m not the only one.

  Thank you for your consideration.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  We do not have FTP access and we bloggers cannot install any plugins, we cannot use Microsoft or Google translation widgets or any others, as they are JavaScript and it’s stripped out to preserve security on this multiuser blogging platform. http://en.support.wordpress.com/code/

  However, I have translation on my WordPress.com blogs. There are two workarounds and you will find them here > http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2011/02/14/translation-widget-for-wordpress-com-blogs/
  Note: You can copy and paste the code on my Translations page and then replace every occurrence of my blog’s URL in the code with your own blog’s URL.

  I’ve seen your answer a couple of times, that’s the only one available.
  And that’s why I was wondering if someone at wordpress.com was working on something legit, and easier to add on our blog.
