[Resolved] Drop down flags

Hi there.

I was able to find that there's some existing custom CSS that controls that area.

We can make it smaller so that it looks nicer (as you see in my screenshot).

You can go to Appearance > Customiser > Custom CSS > Add the following CSS code and save:

@media (min-width:1023px) {
#mega_main_menu li.wpml-ls-item.default_dropdown>.mega_dropdown {
width: 54px !important;
}}

Please let me know if that does the trick for you 🙂

Kind regards,

Hi there.

But it would not be possible to make it bigger with next to the flag the name of the language in the dropdown?

I think you should be able to do that, yes. You can go to WPML > Languages > search for the "Menu language switcher" section > edit the settings for it > and select the checkbox so that it shows the language name > save.

Please let me know how that goes.

In regards to the new issue that you mentioned, I have no idea why would that happen but feel free to open a new ticket and we will be happy to take a deeper look.

Per our Support Policy, we can handle only one issue per ticket.

Continuing with one issue per ticket helps not only supporters to focus on one issue at once, but also enables other users to find solutions to their questions faster.

Thank you so much for your understanding!

Hi there.

The name of the language is what we have available at this moment, we don't have the country names.

I personally never met a situation where someone would want to use the country name instead of the language name but I definitely understand that this would work great and would make a lot of sense for specific situations.

Most people use just the flags, because it looks nicer and it doesn't take a lot of space, some of them use the language name only without flags, and some of them use both.

As these are the most requested and used combinations, probably this is why our developers never took country names in consideration as an extra alternative.

This can be accomplished with some custom coding, with the jQuery Javascript library for example, but custom coding falls out of the purpose of our Support Policy so I recommend getting in touch with a front-end developer or a WPML contractor (http://wpml.org/contractors) if you really need/want that feature.

I hope that you will find this info helpful 🙂

Have a lovely rest of the weekend!

Hi there.

Now things are way clearer 🙂 Thank you for the help.

You will need some more custom CSS code to accomplish that (targeting the current language and removing any text) but this will be more complex than the initial example I shared with you so I recommend that you hire a WPML contractor (http://wpml.org/contractors/) or a front-end developer for this.

Custom coding work falls out of the purpose of our Support Policy but we try our best to help as much as we can when things are not too complex.
