Questions: Using with Google Translate full page translation iframe/proxy - Links do not work?

[zealot128]

Google Translate allows a website to be fully translated by just passing a URL

https://translate.google.de/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&hl=de&u=$SITEURL&client=webapp

If the HTTP headers of your site are ok (CSP/Content Security Policy), than it will proxy the site content via a subdomain like https://YOURSITE-com.translate.goog/PATH

In general, it worked great, even with delayed rendering using Inertia/Vue (no SSR atm).

BUT using the Inertia Link components break the proxying, and one will get a error modal by GTranslate "Can't translate this page". Using normal a-tags works, they will just open in a new tab.

This problem is very special, but maybe somebody else had this issue, too.

We started a job board for international applicants and wanted to provide a simple Translate Button, because not all job descriptions are properly translated in English or the reader's native language.
