How about giving the option to turning off the languages? They could be on by default for those people who can't read/write English, but those of us who does know English can turn it off? For me it's useless, because I know English and Russian, neither of the ones there, and it brings down the more important links for me such as forum links...

Bogey,I only notice the Translation Function today when I see your post.
No wonders,I finally know why OZZU search engine is so strong..

There's once a time, I used google to search my domain name, I see a backlink in ozzu.com. The information is not only in English,but also in some other languages(I don't recognize the characters, do not know what is the language)....

So,I guess, this function is not only useful for visitors, but more for search engine. :D

Thanks for your ideas. That menu on the right still has lots of plans to be redone. Things will be different eventually, especially with how the different forums are listed.

In the mean time, if you're using Firefox install Stylish.

In the browsers top menu get to Stylish via
Code: [ Select ]
View -> Sidebar -> Stylish


In the sidebar that shows up click the "Write" button.

In the dialog box that pops up enter a name for what you want to call this rule in the text box on top, and enter the following CSS rule in the textarea on the bottom.

Code: [ Select ]


Attachments:


If you're using Opera, add this to the user.css for Ozzu.
Code: [ Select ]
#sidebar > .right + .right
{
    display:none !important;
}
  1. #sidebar > .right + .right
  2. {
  3.     display:none !important;
  4. }


When you're logged in it will hide the Other Languages box, when you're not logged in it will hide the Forum Network box.
Strong with this one, the sudo is.

That didn't do it for me... I still see the Other Languages menu block thing on the right...

[EDIT:] Changing that to:

Code: [ Select ]
@namespace url(http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml);

@-moz-document domain("ozzu.com") {
    #sidebar > .right + .right
    {
        display:none !important;
    }
}
  1. @namespace url(http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml);
  2. @-moz-document domain("ozzu.com") {
  3.     #sidebar > .right + .right
  4.     {
  5.         display:none !important;
  6.     }
  7. }


Did the trick... thank you

Firefox user.css sure is cooky. I don't think I've ever done the same thing twice with it.
