NOT Dexter's Lab

So here we go with tip #2 for this great plugin. I wanted to show both the flag and the name of available languages on my wordpress sidebar. The function responsible for checking available languages is polyglot_list_langs, which I had to modify a little bit to suit my needs. Ok, let’s stop talking and start coding

- Enter WordPress Administration Area
- Edit Polyglot Plugin ( Plugins -> Polyglot -> Edit).
- Look for polyglot_list_langs function (~ line no. 487)
- Look for this line of code (near the end of the function, ~ line no. 544)

echo "\">". (($flags) ? "<img src=\"".$polyglot_settings['path_to_flags'].$polyglot_settings['flags'][$value] ."\" alt=\"".get_trans($value)."\" title=\"".get_trans($value)."\" />" : get_trans($value)) ."</a></li>";

- Replace that line with the following code block (yeah, I know that’s not very elegant)

if($flags == 2)
	echo "\"><img src=\"".$polyglot_settings['path_to_flags'].$polyglot_settings['flags'][$value] ."\" alt=\"".get_trans($value)."\" title=\"".get_trans($value)."\" /> ".get_trans($value)."</a></li>";
else
	echo "\">". (($flags) ? "<img src=\"".$polyglot_settings['path_to_flags'].$polyglot_settings['flags'][$value] ."\" alt=\"".get_trans($value)."\" title=\"".get_trans($value)."\" />" : get_trans($value)) ."</a></li>";

- Ok, we’re almost done. Now you can simply call polyglot_list_langs(2) to make it show the flag and language name To get it working in our wordpress sidebar we need to look for the function called in widget_polyglot (around line 911) and change its argument from $listtype (which wasn’t working for me) to 2.

We made it, now polyglot will please us with its flags and language names Any feedback is apreciated (even cursing me for my italo-english ) !
