How to process Multi language for Header and Footer?

[admin]

Hi all customer,

In this tutorial we’ll help you process multi language in our theme.

We’ll have tutorial for each plugin here.

1. Polylang

1.1. Translate Header

Top Header:

Because Top Header use Widgets to display so you can translate it by translate Widget in Appearance -> Widgets

Menu:

You can go to Appearance -> Menu and create Menu for each language like step 4 in this tutorial: https://harutheme.com/forums/topic/how-to-use-multi-language-in-wordpress-with-polylang-plugin/

Header Elements:

You can customize template display of Header Elements follow this topic tutorial: https://harutheme.com/forums/topic/customize-wordpress-theme-using-child-theme/

Example customize Social Network you need customize this template:

wp-content/themes/xxx/templates/header/header-elements/social-network-xxx.php

You need code to check current language:

$slug = pll_current_language('slug');

and check conditional to display for each language. Example you use French as secondary language:

if ($slug == 'fr') {

$youtube_fr = '#'; // You need change # to your url

$social_icons .= '<li><a href="' . esc_url( $youtube_fr ) . '" target="_blank"><i class="fa fa-youtube"></i></a></li>' . "\n";

} else {

$social_icons .= '<li><a href="' . esc_url( $youtube ) . '" target="_blank"><i class="fa fa-youtube"></i></a></li>' . "\n";

}

You can do similar with other Header Elements.
