Hi there, i’m using the following parameters:

–

How can i provide the translated, alternative text for the post/page it’s referencing to? Right now, this points to a page title ‘Welcome Parents to . . .’ and it’s anchor as intended, is replaced by words specified in parameter.

But, how can i achieve the same thing, translating it to second language?
I would need something similar..

Thank you in advance for any help.

I got my solution: I use get_permalink() from WP, with your icl_object_id, get get exactly what I want: get_permalink(icl_object_id(2, 'page', true)), replace 2 with the page to link to.

Is there a function to get only the URI? I have a 3 huge boxes as links on the front pages and everything is contained in the “a” tags.

I know I can use the text variable inside this function, but it looks messy, I want less functionality for more flexibility

It would be great if this function contained one more argument that could hold valueso of link attributes, such as title,class etc..

sorry i’m being stupid. The previous developer had set the css text-transform property to lowercase. doh!

Add your textdomain to the Gettext call. You’re probably getting translation from WordPress .mo file.

Hi I’m trying to use this method:
icl_link_to_element(16, ‘post’, __(‘Home’))
The translation itself works fine, however it returns everything in lower case for some reason. Any ideas?

Can you start a thread about that in the forum? Would be easier to track it there.

Thanks for your reply.
However the link to the image is to an image in a custom field, like this:

No idea how to Include the ICL_LANGUAGE_CODE code into such link… i tried it in different ways, without luck. Is there a way to do it with a link like this one? I use the same image for all languages only the link should go to the page in the selected language.

Thank you,
Maggy
