Language constants
WPML defines the following constants which can be used in the theme:
| Constant | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| ICL_LANGUAGE_CODE | Code for the current language | fr |
| ICL_LANGUAGE_NAME | Name of current language, in the current language | Français |
| ICL_LANGUAGE_NAME_EN | Name of the current language name in English | French |
Disabling WPML’s CSS and JS files
WPML comes with its own CSS and JS files that style its navigation and drop-down language switcher.
If you don’t need them in your theme, you can tell WPML not to load these files. Do to that, define the following constants in your theme:
| Constant | The file it disables |
|---|---|
| ICL_DONT_LOAD_NAVIGATION_CSS | Navigation stylesheets – cms-navigation-base.css and cms-navigation.css |
| ICL_DONT_LOAD_LANGUAGE_SELECTOR_CSS | Drop-down language selector stylesheet – language-selector.css |
| ICL_DONT_LOAD_LANGUAGES_JS | Drop-down language selector Javascript – sitepress.js |
To set these constants, define them in the theme’s functions.php file. For example:
define('ICL_DONT_LOAD_NAVIGATION_CSS', true);
