There's a somewhat "hidden" feature of the QuickEditor that I haven't talked about much. If you give us a Google Translate API Key, we can enable Page Editor Translations for your QuickEditor license.
This will allow you and your users to translate everything on the page inside of your GHL Page Editor with one click.
This is great for if you have an English funnel template that you want to convert to another language to either give your users or start as a starting template for yourself.

Important note: The free tier service allows for substantial translation usage without any costs, provided you remain within the specified character limit per month.
More information is available at: https://cloud.google.com/translate/.
To create your application’s API key simply follow the steps below:
1. Create a New Project in Google Cloud Console:
Navigate to the Cloud Platform Console (console.cloud.google.com)
Look for the top navigation bar
Locate and click the downward-pointing arrow (▼)
In the pop-up window that appears, click the "New Project" button
Enter a descriptive name for your project and select the "Create" button
2. Enable Google Cloud Translation API
From your project dashboard, locate and click the three-line menu (☰) on the left side, then navigate to "API & Services" in the dropdown menu.
Click the "+ Enable APIs and Services" button at the top of your dashboard to access the API library and activate the Google Translate API features.
In the API Library window, use the search bar to look up "Cloud Translation API" to locate the translation service.
Find the Cloud Translation API in the results and click the "Enable" button to activate it for your project.
3. Create a new Google API key
From the left sidebar, select the "Credentials" tab, then click "Create Credentials" at the top. Choose "API Key" from the dropdown menu that appears.
A new API key will be generated automatically for your project.
4. Restrict your API Key
5. Restrict usage of translation API
In order to have control over the cost of Google Translate API, it is highly recommended to set quotas to limit usage.
From the same APIs and services screen, go to Enabled APIs and services, scroll down on the page, and find the Cloud Translation API.
Click it and then navigate to the Quotas tab.
From here, you’ll be able to view all your quotas, select the ones you want to modify, and then edit them.
6. Copy your API Key and send it in a support ticket.
Go back to the Credentials tab and click the Show key button next to your newly created API key.
A new pop-up will appear to display your API key. Copy it from here.
