Thanks for the screenshots.
As mentioned by @GrahamM ai_translation_backfill_hourly_rate
needs to be set by your site admin as it is a hidden setting.
Other than what’s mentioned in the FAQ, could you folks check -
- Check the graph at
https://your-site.com/admin/plugins/discourse-ai/ai-translations
. How many eligible posts are there? If it doesn’t show up, you’ll need to update- e.g.
- Run this query in discourse-data explorer if you have it:
SELECT
a.id,
a.created_at,
a.raw_request_payload,
a.raw_response_payload,
a.post_id
FROM ai_api_audit_logs a
WHERE a.created_at > '2025-09-01'
AND a.feature_name = 'translation'
ORDER BY a.created_at DESC
LIMIT 100
- open a post is a backfill candidate, is the locale detected?
- undetected
