Hello guys, I am quite new here, I ama happy user of Rum-X app and I met for a while @Oliver in person. I like the community nad possibility of split bottles. I love it. I have one idea. As I understand the idea of this forum is to have it international, but often, may be very often 😃 guys here switch to german 🙂 Is not good idea to stay in english? Or this community is just german rum community? Thank you for your feedback. ---

I also prefer to communicate in English, but sometimes it is easier / better to express things in your own language to avoid misunderstandings. Therefore I have implemented a translation feature here in the forum. You can set your preferred language (e.g. English) in the user preferences (menu item _Interface_): [https://community.rumx.com/my/preferences](https://community.rumx.com/my/preferences) Then a globe will appear under each post in the footer section, which translates the post into your specified target language when clicked. ☺🙌🏼 ---

I also wasn’t aware of this feature for long and German language kept me away from rumX like for a year or something. Maybe it’d be good to make this feature more obvious (but I have no idea how) ---

That was not a stupid question, but valuable feedback. I’ll check directly how I can make the translation feature more prominent 😌🙌🏼. ---

As a small optimization I have just changed the icon. So it should generate more “curiosity” to click. ---

D is there any option to automatically translate the names of the topics in the main screen? ---

I think the easiest way here would be to use the translate function of the browser. Chrome, for example, has a very good and reliable tool (Translate icon in the top right corner of the search bar). ---

@Oliver It seems that translate function does not work well ☹ ![image](https://community.rum-x.com/uploads/default/original/2X/0/0aa6e859de2a34d2ef36d689dcd2a967a51a67de.png) ---

There is currently a bug in the translation plugin that prevents posts containing links from being translated. I’m waiting for the plugin developers to fix this. Posts without links should work fine though, right? ---

I use to see the same issue when there is a picture added, if it can help…
