Hi all,

I hope everyone is doing well. I am mailing you all to raise awareness to an 
issue that I have encountered whilst translating strings on the Apache 
Translate Pootle Service. So whilst I’m translating, I decided to fiddle around 
with the website a little and came across an issue that occurs not only in the 
Arabic translation section, but for all other languages such as French, German, 
Italian and so on. Take a look at the picture below and be aware of where my 
cursor is pointing at...

So I am attempting to click the “Google translate (EN->AR) button”, and I 
expect it to either open a new window directing me to the google translate 
page, or maybe a mini-window on the current webpage I’m on, or at the very 
least, automatically translate the English string to Arabic based on Google 
translation. None of that happens, though, and instead I receive an error 
message at the bottom of the webpage saying “Google Translate Error. The 
request is missing a valid API key”.

I hope this makes sense to you all and am looking to hearing back from the 
relevant individual/s on a solution to this issue, as the existence of that 
button is there to work, and not be out of order. I would also like to express 
my interest in potentially helping you out with fixing this and other related 
problems as I am a sufficiently experienced coder too and not only a translator 
😊

Thanks again everyone and I wish you all the best.

Regards,

Ahmad
