I try to build an yahoo pipe, in order to translate RSS feeds from different languages into one. Searching the web there are a lot of examples and tutorials from the last 2 years. Searing through the yahoo pipes from other users, there many pipes, ready to clone...

...but if i like to build my own, in need the translate module. This is normally part of the "string" submenue.

But i can't find an translation module. There is no one!

The translate module still exists at the yahoo pipes documentation but is not available at my pipes source code editor.

Is this module removed by yahoo? Or may I have to "activate" something before I can use pipes?

The original translation tool (Babelfish.yahoo.com) was shut down earlier in 2012, so the translation module stopped working.

The Yahoo Pipes blog recently described a new replacement method you can use: http://pipes.yqlblog.net/2012/12/10/pipes-translate-module/

  • Oh jeah - that works. Thank you. But Microsoft / bing translate API is restricted to 2.000.000 characters per month, which is not so much. Did you have an additional idea? – The Bndr Jan 03 '13 at 13:03
