Is Automatic Translation for Most Content Now Official?

Support

I noticed that on some Discourse forums, a large portion of the content, including many topics and posts, is automatically translated. Is this now an officially supported feature? If so, how can I enable it on my forum, and are there specific requirements?

Thanks!

For example, the official Discourse Meta forum. Here is a screenshot where both the topic title and its content are automatically translated into Chinese.

This is new functionality in the discourse-translator plugin. We’ll be announcing the new features with more information in the next few days.

Thank you for the clarification. The new auto-translation feature is great! However, I noticed that it automatically translates content without allowing users to view the original text. Since translations can sometimes have mistakes, it would be helpful if users could toggle between the translated content and the original text, similar to how Twitter handles translations.
