 * I am trying to place this plugin into my Menu bar. However, when I add a Custom
   Link into the menu and place [prisna-google-website-translator] as the URL, nothing
   happens. How can I add this plugin into my Menu?

 * Hello,
 * WordPress doesn’t allow you to add shortcodes in the menu items.
 * You can try to use this free plugin:
 * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/shortcode-in-menus/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/shortcode-in-menus/)
 * But I wouldn’t know how it works as I don’t know it.
 * The plugin can be used either as a widget or with a short code.
 * If your theme doesn’t have a widget area in your desired location, then it’ll
   be possible to do that by modifying the theme files. For such task, you’ll have
   to contact the theme developer and ask them to add a place holder in your desired
   location; then they can also easily insert the short code there so you don’t 
   need to modify any PHP file.
 * Regards
