Translate This was working perfectly and would reopen page with translated text. It just started to redirect and open into a google translate page (translate.google.com...) which causes lost functionality on my site. Any thoughts on how to correct or what caused the change in action?
Thanks much.

Hi William, do you have an URL where I can see this behavior?

Same behavior for me with version 6.x-1.1. This also disconnects the authenticated user. Damage

I have the exact same issue, but I think it is with translateth.is's script, because I am not using Drupal.

Console reports:

The connection to ws://85.17.190.170:9011/socket.io/1/websocket/7k0ehDszUhdYsrcWvOW3 was interrupted while the page was loading.

Has anyone made any headway into discovering what the problem is?

@Joenet: only assign a issue to yourself if you plan to fix it. If not; please leave it Unassigned.

I'm not sure what's causing this. The link pointed at in #4 also mentioned a possible cause: "They have an automatic system to catch sites that abuse their system. My site was caught on that, but this time was a mistake. They get me a manual override on their system to prevent future redirections."

So not sure why it's happening to you. Let's keep this issue open for a while to see where and why it is happening.

The same for me. But it is strange because sometimes it happens, and sometimes not. Looks unpredictable. Very disturbing. Any solution ?

I am having the same issue. I wonder how to check which sites are on the list of the "automatic system" and how to override it.

Any ideas yet?

My site is: u-english.com. As mentioned in post #3, users are logged out of the site when they are redirected.

I am finding the same after applying the fix for External Links module (http://drupal.org/node/871684#comment-3280274)

Hi all, I'm not sure if this is related exactly, but all the block seems to show is the word "translate" and is linked to http://translateth.is/ No Js dropdown, nothing. Just an external link. Is there something I'm missing?

Here is the site the behavior is happening on. www.plainhavoc.com

Any info would be appreciated.

Has anyone solved the issue? It is a bit annoying when you were get redirected to the translate.google when you where hitting the translate button.

Chiming in (and following this issue): I manage a portfolio of 18 websites, all in Drupal 7, and we're having this problem across the board. Everywhere we had implemented the Translate functionality, it's now showing this redirect behavior instead of the "Give me a dropdown menu of languages to choose from" behavior we expect.
