Custom language switch not applied

Hi, the easier way for that is probably by shortcode , look in the documenation and use

[falangsw display_name="1" display_flags="0" ]

and put EN or DE in your language name

Thank you for your fast reply @sbouey. I changed the language names to the language codes. Anyway, I would prefer an option in the language switcher to only display language codes instead of language names.

There is one other topic. My client wants to have a separation between the languages in the language switcher, such as EN | DE | FR . I manually added the “|” with JavaScript as single list items between the language names. I was just wondering if there is a cleaner way to achieve this? Perhaps for this goal the filter would be useful. Still curious about how it’s supposed to work. Can you give further explanation?

Hi,

In your case custom code is better , i use this on my Falang for Divi Demo site

function et_header_top_hook_falang() {
	add_action('print_custom_language_switch', 'custom_language_switch', 10, 2);
	do_action('falang_print_language_switch');
}

function custom_language_switch($languages, $falang) {
//test
	?>
	<ul class="falang-language-switcher nav">
		<?php
		foreach ($languages as $language) {
			$file = FALANG_DIR.'/flags/' . $language->flag_code . '.png';
			if ( ! empty( $language->flag_code ) && file_exists( $file) ) {
				$flag_url = plugins_url( 'flags/'.$language->flag_code . '.png', FALANG_FILE );
			}
			?>
			<li class="<?php echo $language->slug; ?><?php if ($falang->is_default($language)) echo ' current'; ?>">
				<a href="<?php echo $falang->get_translated_url($language); ?>"><img src="<?php echo $flag_url; ?>" alt="<?php echo $language->name;?>"/> </a>
			</li>
		<?php } ?>
	</ul>
	<?php

}

you can remove the flag code and use the code (slug) and your | in the loop

Here too. I forgot to mark this topic as resolved. I made some customizations to the filter you suggested and it worked. Thank you!

Thanks to put it as resolved even if it’s 2 months after.
