WPML language switcher in reverse way

  • hello,

    I manage a bilingual website french/russian

    I am using “Multilingual plugin for WordPress Version 2.4.1 | By Valentyn Riaboshtan”

    The way the switcher works is not appropriate for me : when one is on the french page, the flag displayed is “french” as well as its label (“francais)”

    but I would like to display instead the “russian” flag on the french page with its “Русский” label, so that users can switch, which would be more logical !

    I would see 2 solutions:
    1/ either have both flags visible and clickable
    2/ or create a new jpeg with both french/russian flags on it, to tell it is a switch

    but I do not find the way to import it : I do not see the “edit” WPML menu

    any idea ?
    thanks a lot !

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Visit this link:
    wp-admin/options-general.php?page=wpm-settings&tab=languages

    and change the Name of your Russian language button to “Русский”: (note: screenshot is for French) here:

    hello Anticosti
    thanks for your reply
    but Russian language button is already “Русский”, as you may see on my website link

    maybe I was not clear, but what I want to do is to get the “russian” button on french pages
    and “french” button on russian pages

    is it possible ?

    @raf58
    Here’s an example for the CSS to hide the current French language button:

    html[lang="fr-FR"] body.language-fr ul.wpm-language-switcher li.item-language-fr.active {
display:none;
visibility:hidden;
}
