Hello,
I have a problem with the WPML language switcher.
I have tried every thread posted here on Kriesi.at to Display the language switcher as a dropdown but nothing helped.
1. https://kriesi.at/support/topic/enfold-heading-with-wpml/ not works for me
2. https://kriesi.at/support/topic/wpml-language-switcher-3/ not works for me
3. https://kriesi.at/support/topic/remove-language-switcher-flags-in-header/ not works for meThe dropdown does not show up . Can you help me?
Thanks a lot in advance!
First, I have to remove the theme’s default flag configuration with this on functions.php:
add_action(‘after_setup_theme’,’avia_remove_main_menu_flags’);
function avia_remove_main_menu_flags(){
remove_filter( ‘wp_nav_menu_items’, ‘avia_append_lang_flags’, 20, 2 );
remove_filter( ‘avf_fallback_menu_items’, ‘avia_append_lang_flags’, 20, 2 );
remove_action( ‘avia_meta_header’, ‘avia_wpml_language_switch’, 10);
}
Use this again on functions.php file to add the WPML language selector:add_action(‘avia_meta_header’, ‘ava_icl_language_selector’);
function ava_icl_language_selector(){
do_action(‘icl_language_selector’);
}after /wp-content/themes/enfold-child/includes/helper-main-menu.php
do_action(‘avia_meta_header’);
with:do_action(‘icl_language_selector’);
I see the dropdown box but it’s not clickable also there is only one language showing up there
Hi!
Thank you for using Enfold.
Could you please provide a link to the page? Adding the code to remove the default flag switcher and enabling the drop down switcher should be enough. You don’t need to modify the helper-main-menu.php file.
add_action('after_setup_theme','avia_remove_main_menu_flags'); function avia_remove_main_menu_flags(){ remove_filter( 'wp_nav_menu_items', 'avia_append_lang_flags', 20, 2 ); remove_filter( 'avf_fallback_menu_items', 'avia_append_lang_flags', 20, 2 ); remove_action( 'avia_meta_header', 'avia_wpml_language_switch', 10); } add_action('avia_meta_header', 'add_custom_content_to_header'); function add_custom_content_to_header() { do_action('icl_language_selector'); }Best regards,

Hi,
Did you set the WPML > Language switcher ? Language switcher style option dropdown?

RikardSame problem on my Site. I tried to display the dropdown but it does not show up. This topic exists for over two years now. Why is it still not fixed?
I have tried to select dropdown and other opportunities but nothing worked out for me. Can you help me?Hi,
This topic was started in june of this year for the record. Could you post a link to your site and try to explain your problem a bit further please?
Thanks,
RikardHi Rikard,
there are a few topics with the same problem which started two years ago. But the other solutions where just CSS solutions. Thats why I’m asking why you don’t fix in an update? I can’t attach images. I want to change the style for my WPML from a simple Flag (displayed in a row next to each other) to a dropdown with a Flag an a name to save space in my top menu. The Menu is displayed in the normal menu.
<li class=”av-language-switch-item language_de avia_current_lang current-menu-item”><span class=”language_flag”>
</span>
How can I change it into a dropdown Menu?
Hi,
Did you try the solution above? The code should remove the default flag styling of the theme and then add the default WPML language switcher in the top bar. https://kriesi.at/support/topic/wpml-language-switcher-as-dropdown-list/#post-648402
