This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The client wants to display language switch links as 'DE | EN' in the navigation bar, but currently, they appear as separate links 'English' 'German'. The client is looking for a way to add the language switch as an HTML widget in the navigation bar and to display the links together without too much space in between.
Solution:
To display the language names in the desired format ('DE' instead of 'German', etc.), you should go to WPML > Languages > Edit Languages and rename the languages as needed, then save the changes. To add a vertical line between the language switch links, we recommend checking out the following public tickets for guidance on adding a vertical line to the language switcher separator: here.
If this solution does not apply to your case, or if it seems outdated, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If you still need assistance, please open a new support ticket here.
