This option can be activated by an administrator. Once the option activated, a **Translate** button will appear if the message language is not the one you use on Talkspirit.

As a reminder, you can select 8 different languages on Talkspirit:

* _French,_
* _English,_
* _Spanish,_
* _German,_
* _Italian,_
* _Dutch,_
* _Polish,_
* _Portuguese._

# Enable translation on the fly

Only an administrator can activate the translation of content on the fly.

To do so, he/she must go to the **Administration**, **Newfeed** section and activate the option **Enable translation of posts and comments**.

Once the platform is activated, all content shared in a language other than the one set on the user's platform will display the **Translate** button.
