Sergio	Hello, please go to hidden link As you can see if you put the cursor on the language name the following appears: <img class="wpml-ls-flag" src="<em><u>hidden link</u></em>" alt="nl" title="Nederlands"> I saw this thread: https://wpml.org/forums/topic/hovering-language-switcher-it-shows-full-path-of-source-code-of-html/ However it' strange, because: -this is a supported wpml theme -the same configuration is in this site hidden link and the issue doesn't appear. Is there a solution, not a workaround?

Riffaz Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Colombo (GMT+05:30)	Hi Sergio, The alt tags are controlled by your theme's JavaScript. The alt tag for your language switcher is "nl". with their titles: hidden link It seems that your theme is picking up the whole code as the anchor tag title. If you examine your front-end code you will notice that the title is wrongly wrapped. (Please check the attached screenshot) You can test that this is theme related by switching to a default theme such as twenty17 and examining the flags with it as well. Standard code for language flag in my local environment <a><img class="wpml-ls-flag" src="<em><u>hidden link</u></em>" alt="ar" title="العربية"></a> The way your theme displays the flags <a nederlands="" title="<img class="wpml-ls-flag" src="<em><u>hidden link</u></em>" alt="nl" title="Nederlands"><span class="wpml-ls-native">Nederlands</span>" href="<em><u>hidden link</u></em>"> <img class="wpml-ls-flag" src="<em><u>hidden link</u></em>" alt="nl" title="Nederlands"><span class="wpml-ls-native">Nederlands</span> </a> Essentially the problem is the following part of the HTML code <a title=" It needs to be just <a><img class = " .... Please contact your theme support. They will be able to fix this in minutes. Regards, Riffaz.
