Dear Dennis,

Great support from you, I just renamed my custom flag file from ar.png to arableague.png and issue was solved. I agree this name (arableague.png) makes more sense than just (ar) as it may mix up with the flag name of (Ar)gentine.

all the best.

Arabic flag is missing, ar, please add it to the plugin. I lost the flag after the last update to 2.2.0, please help!

I confirm that naming of the flags was exactly like what in the original collection. I installed the firebug and it issued no errors. I still wonder why ar.png worked fine whereas es.png did break the links when entered into the path of custom URI of custom flags. This might lend a clue as to where might the problem be. I am left clueless now as what to do next.

Now my question, am I supposed to enter just the path to the flag icons or explicitly put the file name of the flag icon? It worked well when I entered only the path to icons without specifying any file names. As I said before, that worked well for front end and backend except the spanish flag, it was showing the small default one in the backend dashboard.

when I tried to enter in the custom URL for the flag icons inside the pluging settings:
/public_html/wp-content/themes/minimum/images/flags/ar.png — was no problem

But,
/public_html/wp-content/themes/minimum/images/flags/es.png — the flags disappeared and I can see now the broken links to names of files like es_ES.png, de-DE.png, zh_CN.png. Is this a normal behavior? Do I need now likewise to rename the custom flag icons according to this naming convention?

If you see it is a problem with how the server (shared bluehost) reads URL, what would be the next logical step to change that behavior? Your help would be much appreciated.

BTW, thanks for the link about Chrome browser, but it a general tutorial, I know develp tool but I don’t see these errors on my Chrome browser.

How can I view these errors on my chrome browser? How to troubleshoot the problem from there? as you can see it is related to flag images, which is related to the plugin settings. There is nothing special about my settings anyway.

the name of the Spanish flag (larger version) is es.png which resides in the path /public_html/wp-content/themes/minimum/images/flags. Please note that I never changed the default names inside the plugin.

the link is here to the public site.

I don’t see any problem with my multisite setting i.e. WPMU and I have no problem at all with sharing the subfolders/subsites of the network using this fantastic plugin. I have multilingual network (development local server though) and sharing of subsites is just fine. I am speaking of plugin version 5.6. May be this issue has already been fixed since PO started this thread.
May setting is like this:
example.com
example.com/ar
example.com/cn
example.com/de

@ville6000, thanks for the fix for multisite installation, but I am just thinking loud: what if you updated the plugin would that overwrite your modified function? as a solution: can I put this code inside functions.php of the child theme to keep it even after updating the plugin?
