Get the detailed URL to a post

Ok. Additional Problem:

$blogs			= MslsBlogCollection::instance();
$mydata			= MslsOptions::create(get_the_ID());

foreach ($blogs->get() as $blog) { var_dump($blog);
			$language	= $blog->get_language();
			$langname	= $blog->get_description();
			$siteurl	= $blog->siteurl;
			$siteid		= $blog->siteid;

			// get the URL of the translation
			switch_to_blog($blog->userblog_id);
			var_dump($mydata->get_permalink($language));

			// build the array with the languages https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/check-if-the-post-has-translation?replies=3
			if($mydata->has_value($language)){
				if(isset($this->options['show_flags']) && $this->options['show_flags']){
					$languages[]	= sprintf(
						'<a href="%s" title="%s"><img src="%s" alt="Flag" class="nopin" /> %s</a>',
						$siteurl,
						$language,
						plugins_url('/images/'.$language.'.svg' , __FILE__ ),
						$langname
					);
				}else{
					$languages[]	= sprintf(
						'<a href="%s" title="%s">%s</a>',
						$siteurl,
						$language,
						$langname
					);
				}
			}
			restore_current_blog();
		}

i thought that i am able to get the my data of the current POST Id on the index, switch to the blog with the ID of the translation and switch back. But… the link is still the site url and not the post URL… not sure where i am wrong..

I’m not sure if I got it but do you know this link?

Please explain what you’d like to accomplish.

As described in the second post (i couldn’t edit my first) i want to get the URLs of the available languages of a known post id.

Example: PostID 555 has an english, german and french post article. If you visit the german blog, i want to add a link to the other languages on the index (not on the detailed view as it already exists). For that, i need the links to the articles in more than one language.

i fetched the data using

$blogs			= MslsBlogCollection::instance();
$mydata			= MslsOptions::create(get_the_ID());

now i am able to get the details of the available languages minus the current one:

foreach ($blogs->get() as $blog)
problem: $siteurl = $blog->siteurl; does link to the index, not to the article itself. i tried to generate the link to the article using

switch_to_blog($blog->userblog_id);
			var_dump($mydata->get_permalink($language));

within the foreach loop. But it links to the index as well. i am not sure how to get the article link.

other problem: ($mydata->has_value($language) seems to be always false… not sure why..there seems to be an issue with my implementation. but not sure where. do you get my problem?

ok. I think i got a solution. i wrote a function to search all URLs. These URLs are added to an array and this array is used in the foreach. Smarter and easier. And working ??

MslsOptions is not the right choice in this case because it uses the ID of an object only when is_admin() is true. You could use

$mydata = new MslsOptionsPost( $some_post_id );

when you know it is something like a post.

Look also here to see what the factory of MslsOption does:

Thanks a lot for that hint, that worked.

Ok, very good. ??
