Multilingual with Polylang

[samikeijonen]

Dates and translated strings doesn't work out of the box.

/**
 * Filters the locale ID of the WordPress installation based on Polylang language.
 *
 * @param string $locale The locale ID.
 */
function set_correct_language( $locale ) {
    // Return current language or original language.
    return function_exists( 'pll_current_language' ) ? pll_current_language( 'locale' ) : $locale;
}
add_filter( 'locale', __NAMESPACE__ . '\set_correct_language' );

Somehow we need to do this again :)

Remember to check is_admin so that this doesn't mess with plugins like Yoast.

/**
 * Filters the locale ID of the WordPress installation based on Polylang language.
 *
 * @param string $locale The locale ID.
 */
function set_correct_language( $locale ) {
    // Return current language or original language.
    if ( ! is_admin() ) {
        return function_exists( 'pll_current_language' ) ? pll_current_language( 'locale' ) : $locale;
    }

    return $locale;
}
add_filter( 'locale', __NAMESPACE__ . '\set_correct_language' );
