Thank you for your suggestion!

Unfortunately the code, if it is put in this way, is not working. I already tried that and as the result the entire colon had disappeared.
The problem is the code is not being passed through.
I don’t know why. The code itself work fine if I include it in any page using the Define Pages Editor but stops working in the sidebox.
I think the more likely problem is that at some point the code is wrongly interpreted by ZenCart software or PHP. It could be a simple syntax error.

P.S. I pasted in the correct Google code but your blog’s software “cleared” the code.

Please help if you have more ideas.

I think you are missing the last line of the google code.

<script src=”//translate.google.com/translate_a/element.js?cb=googleTranslateElementInit”></script>

Following is the full code you need to enter into the tpl_googlead.php file:

<?php

$content = “”;
$content .= “<div id=\”google_translate_element\”><script> function googleTranslateElementInit() {
new google.translate.TranslateElement({
pageLanguage: ‘en’
}, ‘google_translate_element’);
}</script>
<script src=\”https://translate.google.com/translate_a/element.js?cb=googleTranslateElementInit\”></script></div>”;

?>

Thank you for the tips!
I used your guide to add my own box to my Zen Cart.
The box works fine and I can put a simple text in.
But my attempt to run Google translate widget failed.
I am not a programmer so probably I did some silly mistakes in the code.
Could you help with coding /YOUR_TEMPLATE/sideboxes/tpl_googlead.php file?

The Google translate widget code:

function googleTranslateElementInit() {
new google.translate.TranslateElement({
pageLanguage: ‘en’
}, ‘google_translate_element’);
}

What code should I put in tpl_googlead.php file?
Please help!

Thank you!
