Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Connect Polylang for Elementor

Setup Polylang at first, add at least TWO languages, one of them make your default language (in Polylang) Add content to your default Polylang language - if Polylang asks you to apply existing content to it, you should most likely click "ok" and proceed - it works really fine :) After that setup an Elementor Theme Builder template - assign it to your Polylang default language, apply conditions in Elementor Next, setup a translation template for the template of 3.) -- assign your second Polylang language, DO NOT apply conditions in Elementor

It's in the widget category "General Elements" with the name "Language switcher". Plus, if Elementor Pro is active and you're editing a template, the widget additionally appears in the "Site" widget category. Always via search: When searching for widgets type "polylang" or "languages" and it will show up immediately! ;-)

This plugin has NO settings page, as it does not need one. All it does works just under the hood. Activate the plugin. Done.

Technically, Elementor Pro is not required but highly recommended. Elementor Pro (affiliate link) is required for these features of the plugin: Translate Elementor Theme Builder Templates (header, footer, 404, page, archives). Translate Elementor Popups. Dynamic Tags, additionally added by the plugin. For the other features of the plugin the free version of Elementor is sufficient - so the native Elementor language switcher widget will work ;-)

Polylang Pro is not required. All features of "Connect Polylang for Elementor" work with both, Polylang and Polylang Pro.

In general, custom flags are supported in the Polylang Switcher Elementor widget and in the Dynamic Tag (Current Language Flag).

To use a different size for custom flags we are trying to find ways to implement this for Elementor in future versions of this plugin.

In the Polylang Switcher Elementor widget there are typography settings available for the Switcher menu items. These settings are CSS based of course, and applied "globally" to the various states they are for: normal, hover, active (current language). The available toggles for uppercase are done code-wise and therefore have a lower priority - this means the CSS always takes over, if wanted. That way you are most flexible with quick settings (toggles) but have all styling options at hand if needed.

There are quite a few: Polylang Pro (Premium) - The official premium version with more features, plus premium support Polylang for WooCommerce (Premium) - Makes WooCommerce multilingual - official Polylang Add-On Polylang Slug - Allows same slug for multiple languages in Polylang Lingotek Translation - Native Polylang integration - Lingotek brings convenient cloud-based localization and translation for WordPress Elementor Datepicker Localization - Allow form datetime fields in your site language
