Dear Benjamin,
Thank you for your guidance, and I apologize for any inconvenience caused. We’ve identified an occasional issue stemming from our use of weglot.com for auto-translating our website and subsequently caching it for a day. Here’s a breakdown of the situation:
- When a non-German page is accessed,
- Weglot automatically translates the page and generates an HTML rendering,
- This HTML version is then cached for a duration of one day,
- Subsequent requests retrieve the cached HTML file.
This caching makes our website super fast.
This process presents a challenge: if, for any reason, the auto-translation is rejected by Weglot—potentially due to reaching a limit or delayed responses— the “English” page remains untranslated, while the German version is cached for a day.
You can see this at the end of the source code of this specific page:
This occurrence is quite rare, so I hadn’t investigated it further, and it typically resolves itself after a day.
