HTML Translate

Changelog & Updates

⚠️ Known Issues

Position Absolute Limitation

Files containing main DOM elements with position: absolute style may currently fail to translate correctly. We are actively working on resolving this issue. As a temporary workaround, consider removing or modifying absolute positioning from the main content container before translation.

If you encounter any other issues, please contact us.

Release History

v1.0.5

December 13, 2025

✨ New Features

  • Deferred Translation Links: For longer translations (multiple languages or large files), you now receive a download link immediately. No need to wait on the page - bookmark the link and return later to download your translated files.

🛠️ Bug Fixes

  • Fixed translation failures caused by <noscript> tags and other special HTML elements at the end of documents
  • Resolved issue where ZIP archives were downloading with incorrect .zip.html extension
  • Improved handling of malformed HTML files with structural errors

🎨 Improvements

  • Enhanced progress tracking with detailed language-by-language updates
  • Added file name and target languages display on download page
  • Better error handling for edge cases in HTML structure

v1.0.4

December 7, 2025

🛠️ Bug Fixes

  • .htm File Extension Issue: Fixed a critical bug where uploading files with .htm extension resulted in receiving the original untranslated file instead of the translated version. The system now correctly preserves the original file extension (.htm or .html) in the translated output file.

v1.0.3

December 3, 2025

✨ Improvements

  • Expanded Language Support: Added 116 new languages (from 134 to 250 total languages supported)
    • Rare African, Asian, and Oceanic languages (Acehnese, Fijian, Lingala, Tok Pisin, etc.)
    • Regional variants: French (Canada), Portuguese (Portugal), Dari
    • Dialects and scripts: Cantonese, Jamaican Patois, Malay (Jawi), Bambara (N'Ko)
    • Languages of Russia and neighboring regions: Avar, Buryat, Chechen, Tuvan, etc.

v1.0.2

December 1, 2025

🛠️ Bug Fixes

  • File Encoding Support: Fixed a critical issue where files with non-UTF-8 encoding (Windows-1251, ISO-8859-1, UTF-16, etc.) caused translation failures with UnicodeDecodeError. The system now automatically detects and handles multiple character encodings, ensuring successful processing of HTML files created in different editors and operating systems.
  • HTM File Extension Support: Improved file type detection to properly accept both .html and .htm file extensions for translation.

⚡ Improvements

  • Added informational notice about static HTML file support and limitations with JavaScript-generated dynamic content
  • Enhanced file reading robustness with fallback encoding mechanisms

v1.0.1

November 30, 2025

🛠️ Bug Fixes

  • Meta Tag Removal: Fixed an issue where translation failed due to the presence of the HTML content-security-policy meta tag in the source code. This tag is now automatically removed before processing to ensure smooth translation.
  • Style and Script Preservation: Resolved a critical bug causing original styles and scripts to disappear during the translation process. All essential structure, style links, and scripts are now correctly maintained in the output file, preserving your HTML's functionality and appearance.

⚡ Improvements

  • Enhanced HTML parsing stability for complex document structures
  • Improved handling of inline CSS and JavaScript preservation
