Tell us what you are trying to do? We are using WPML for multilanguage, we are using English and Spanish for main website, but for specific page we need to add more language, these language should not display in all website, but a person visit the specific page or menu will display,
Is there any documentation that you are following? I follow WPML documentation and Google didn't find anything specific.
Is there a similar example that we can see? I am not sure,
What is the link to your site? test.hesperian.org --> there will be two language (English and Spanish)
hidden link (But when you come here show many language as needed, English, Spanish, Arabic, Urdo...)
Hello Mihai Apetrei,
Thank you from your reply, still it is not clear, let me clarified the issue more,
we have a website (test.hesperian.org), when I am in the home page, in menu bar it should show only two language (English, Spanish) but when I come to APPS menu in same website, it list more language like Spanish, English, Arabic, Urdu, ... but if you come back to home page it show only Spanish and English, the APPS is not a page, it is a menu, so we cannot translate the menu, and inside the APPS menu there is a lot of other pages,
Please check the site while logged out and NOT logged in.
I don't see anything else on both the homepage and the APPS page except the English and Spanish flags in the language switcher. There are no other languages showing up.
Yes, I have removed the german language, when I add the germen Language it appear in all website, where we want only in APPS menu,
I have added the German Language back, see now it appear in all menu and pages, where we want to display the Germen language only in APPS menu, example
when you are in test.hesperian.org it show Spanish and English
but when you are in test.hesperian.org/APPS it show Spanish, English and German
The fact that German shows on the other pages where you wouldn't want it to show is probably because there's an existing translation in German for that specific page.
If you want to hide the German flag in specific pages (and if there are existing German translations for those pages), you would need to use custom CSS to hide it on each specific page by targeting the page IDs.
Here's a CSS example for hiding the German language flag on the homepage:
Hello Mihai,
Thank you so much, it work, could you please give me CSS code if we want to display the German language only in specific page, and hide in all other pages.
I put that code, it hide from home page, but when I click on other pages like TOPICS, it show me, we want to display that language only in APPS,
Hello Mihai,
Thank you so much, could you please list all id for the languages that are supported in WMPL, like for German language it is 186-de, what are for the reset of languages, like Arabic, Urdo, Pashto ... all languages that are listed in language tab of WPML.
E.g German: .menu-item-wpml-ls-186-de
Arabic?
Italian?
Portguese:?
Japanese: ?
and all others,
The ids and classes are dynamically generated by WordPress so there's no website that uses the same exact ids or classes for each language.
That's why I recommended a front-end developer, because here we are talking about unique ids and classes that someone who knows what they are doing has to go on your site and find all of that.
There's no list that we can share because it is impossible as the ids and classes are uniquely generated for each site.
Thank you Mihai, I am talking the below code, this is from WPML which is unique code and cannot change, how you find 186 for German Language, can you please tell me how to find the code for Arabic language.
I was able to find the CSS class that I mentioned in the code I shared with you below by right-clicking on the German flag and selecting "inspect element".
Please take a look at some useful results below: hidden link
Also, you can find the class of each page (this one for example: ".page-id-25058") in the "body" HTML tag.
This might sound like a different language for you because you probably never worked with front-end code. That's why I recommended hiring someone because this falls out of the purpose of our Support Policy.
This is the best I could do for this situation.
I hope that you will find all this information helpful. 🙂
