hook example usage:

In the example below we want to find out which blog posts have not yet been translated into Greek.
Note how as first argument we pass an array of post ids so that if WPML is not active we will get that back.

Example

$get_post_args = array( 'posts_per_page' => -1, );
$posts_array = get_posts( $get_post_args );
$post_ids = array();
foreach ( $posts_array as $post ) {
	$post_ids[] += $post->ID;
}

$wpml_filter_args = array(
'element_type' => 'post',
'source_language' => 'en',
'target_language' => 'el'
);
$posts_without_greek_translations = apply_filters( 'wpml_elements_without_translations', $post_ids, $wpml_filter_args );
