Problem: How can I get the Language URL format in use in php?

Solution: We can use the following code to get the Language URL format. The *wpml_setting* API call will return 1 if the Language URL format option is *Different languages in directories* and 3 if the option is *Language name added as a parameter*.

$is_wpml_configured = apply_filters( 'wpml_setting', 0, 'language_negotiation_type' );

carlosS-40	Tell us what you are trying to do? I need to know in php code the WPML language format currently in use for a given site in multisite environment. /?lang=en versus /en/ I know I can decipher the url but would be nice if there is a function or constant that already defines what format is currently in use. THanks
