Problem: The client needs to set up a language switcher displaying only the language codes 'Ru En Ro' without flags or full names, as shown in their screenshot. Solution: First, ensure that the languages are set up in WPML by navigating to WPML > Languages. If not present, add new languages at WPML > Languages > Add new language. Detailed steps can be found in the documentation here: Editing WPML's Languages Table. Next, create a Menu Language Switcher by going to WPML > Languages > Menu Language Switcher > Create new language switcher and assign it to the desired menu. Make sure the current page is translated into the languages you want to display; otherwise, they won't appear in the switcher. To display only the language codes 'Ru En Ro', navigate to WPML > Languages > Edit languages and modify the language names accordingly. Then, adjust the settings in WPML > Languages > Menu Language Switcher or Footer Language Switcher to hide flags and show only the language names. For more detailed instructions on setting up the language switcher, visit: Language Switcher Options.

Problem: The client needs to register strings for translation in a PHP shortcode function that displays product stock status. The default language is Russian. Solution: If you're experiencing this issue, we recommend placing your code inside the
functions.php
file of your theme. Then, navigate to WPML > Theme and Plugin Localization and scan the theme for new strings. You can find a guide on how to do this here: Scan the Theme or Plugin. After scanning, translate the strings at WPML > String Translation. This will allow you to use the same shortcode in any language. If the shortcode does not copy automatically when you translate content with the WPML Translation Editor, you may need to place the shortcode manually on your translated content or template.
