Hi

I wonder if it exists a "official" way to know if if WMPL is active. Something like is_wpml_active()
Otherwise I would write a script checking if any WPML Class exist.

I'm developing a script that given a post ID would return an array with all ID from its translations.
Maybe is there any WPML function which do this job?
Where can I get a list of available functions.

We develop plugins and themes and many customer request to be compatible with WPML

Regards

Hello!
Probably the easiest way to check if WPML plugin is active, is to check:

if ( defined( 'ICL_SITEPRESS_VERSION' ) ) {
 echo ("WPML is enabled");
}

Or you can try: https://wpml.org/wpml-hook/wpml_default_language/ and use our hook there - if WPML is not active, it will return NULL

To get the translation of a certain element, you can use: https://wpml.org/wpml-hook/wpml_get_element_translations/

Do note that it requires trid - which can be obtained by: https://wpml.org/wpml-hook/wpml_element_trid/

So you can have:

$post_id = 2; // Here is your ID
$post_type = get_post_type($post_id); // Get the post type

// Get "trid" of the post
$trid = apply_filters( 'wpml_element_trid', NULL, $post_id, 'post_' . $post_type );
// Get the translations
$translations = apply_filters( 'wpml_get_element_translations', NULL, $trid,  'post_' . $post_type);
var_dump($translations);
