Wagtail site for testing model translation on policylab

Automatic Translation Workflow for Wagtail Site

This is a demo site that demonstratse how a 3rd party Translation API can be integrated into a Wagtail Site.

• trans_home_page in models.py is a fully translatable page, where changes made to the English text are detected and sent to a 3rd party translation API (Gengo). When translations are returned, it is updated in the database and displayed in the user's language.
• lang_bar.html demonstrates how you can make a language dropdown on your site to allow your users to choose which language they would like to use.
• Languages you wish to support can be added to settings/languages.csv
