Translating internal collections

I am setting up a site in English and then have enable the auto-translater into Spanish using Google.

All the pages are translated EXCEPT, any of the content in dynamic pages. The translation does not seem to apply to the internal collection.

Has anyone worked on a similar problem and how were you able to solve it?

    I Ken,
    collections are not automatically translated, they are just duplicated with respect to the linked page

    Thanks @DavidL It is not even displaying the original english text from the collection. It shows placeholders titles in Spanish (the alternate language) for the Header and body content sections.

    Is there a way to manually add the translations to the collections without impacting the original collection in English?

    Hello @Ken,
    Sorry for my late reply, if it helps in any way.
    You need to duplicate one of your collections in the language you want and when you switch to the desired language you attach the translated collection.

    Site in EN
    “A-EN collection
    Site in FR
    “A-FR collection
