Hi Steve,

Looks like some of your page content is detected to be in Catalan by Google. As a suggestion, try to remove some elements one by one to see what is causing the problem. Try to remove slider, then map and see if the translation message appears again. Google may falsely detect the content to be in another language or content may be inserted incorrectly.

My guess that it could be doing this is because of the word aqua (I think that's the only non-english word in there). Your title is Aqua 7 your style sheet is also called aqua.

When I click translate on your menu item "home" changes to "man" on your site On google translate the word home translate to man

This link https://github.com/gratipay/gratipay.com/issues/953 may give you some samples to put in the meta section to hopefully prevent this from happening

Thanks for that. Yes this fixed the problem. Although, this Language attribute in the html tag should be handled by Nicepage.

I changed

<html style="font-size: 16px;">

to

<html lang="en-US" style="font-size: 16px;">

Hi Steve,

Nice to hear that the issue is solved. The language attribute in the html tag does not fix the issue in all cases as Google searches for the content in a different language through the page ignoring the language attribute. And also I'll add your suggestion in our wishlist for future considerations.
