I know that this is 9 months old but people need to stop giving long lectures just to tell him that it can’t be done overnight.

First of all, depending on your level, you can do it overnight. I was fairly experienced and have done 2-3 different types of websites overnight. Of course, I did it without any sleep. They weren’t amazing, but they were just enough to be launched. From there, that’s where I slowly improved the look and feel of things.

Second, at least give him some links or clues where to start. He should be able to get it through trial and error.

I’m not that great of a designer but what I used to do is grab the simplest template and go through the codes. The more time you have the better. Be patient, mess the codes up, destroy the template, go back to square one and just have fun doing it! DO WHATEVER YOU WISH if you really want to learn.

We can guide you if you ask detailed technical questions. Just begin your journey. Do things like finding out how to change the colour of a background, text or whatever through google searches.

Come back to us if google searches don’t work. Our guidance is more like a last resort kinda thing on the forums just because you’d have to wait for us to read and reply. Or, you could do a search on google while posting your question for a quicker learning experience. At least that’s what I did to get things to stick in my slow brain.

If this post isn’t relevant to you anymore, I hope it is relevant to any of our silent readers out there.

Is there anything else I should do to prevent this from happening?

Thank you so much! Everything works really nice now.

Great! This time no error is seen and I see a list of all the languages I have, and each language has linked itself to a post it’s translated to, but the ones that are not translated links to the post itself.

Is there a way to remove a link from a language that has not been translated yet? Thanks heaps!

I’ve added the missing semicolon, and it’s fine. Now I’ve just tried adding your div code above <?php the_post(); ?>, I get a message like this Fatal error: Call to undefined function pll_current_language() in /functions.php on line 866

Now I destroyed the whole blog, haha!

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_IF in functions.php on line 832

Wow, the code looks neat! However, am I supposed to just copy and post the first bunch of codes at the end of functions.php? I tried it and my dashboard got messed up.

I don’t really understand what you mean. Am I supposed to add ‘pll_the_languages’ to one of the .php files?

I’m having the same problem sometimes. I’ve tried adding your code but this is what I got..

I just found out that this question has been discussed previously. Sorry about this repost

Thanks for the quick reply. Truly appreciate it. I would tell you the settings I had but I was so in a hurry to settle the situation that I found out an alternative method on my own.

I did use one of my static page as a front page. And after playing with some settings such as remove “/language/” and unchecking hide URL, I couldn’t get the homepage url to stop redirecting to a default language URL. For example, https://mysite.com always redirects to https://mysite.com/en. This was a problem for me as I wanted my visitors to see the static page on https://mysite.com

I solved this by creating a duplicate language and making that as the default language. It’s because I couldn’t find an option that could make the default language page have the language code after it’s url without the front page redirecting itself.

It’s complicated and I don’t even know if I’m making any sense but hey, I solved the issue! Did it by creating a duplicate default language. Thanks again for taking the time to help me.

I’ve posted the question here, but I guess you closed the thread for some reason.

I’ve had this problem and tried changing to…

//add_filter(‘home_url’, array(&$this, ‘home_url’));

…but I still get the same problem.
