Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Language Attribute for Container Blocks and Pages/Posts

Use the Template Language setting (in the Site Editor, under Appearance → Editor → Templates) when you have a group of pages or posts that all share the same language and use the same template — for example, a dedicated template for all your French-language posts. The language set on the template is automatically applied to every page or post using it, so you don't need to configure each one individually. It can always be overridden at the individual post or page level. Use the Page Language setting (in the Document Settings sidebar) when a specific page or post is written in a different language — either overriding the template-level setting or setting it independently when no template language is defined. This overrides the lang attribute on the HTML element itself, which corresponds to WCAG 3.1.1 (Language of Page). Use the Block Language setting (in the block’s sidebar panel) when only a specific section within a page is in a different language, while the rest of the page remains in the site’s default language. This corresponds to WCAG 3.1.2 (Language of Parts).
The idea is to keep it simple and help content and website editors set different language sections, with as many child-blocks as they want, instead of setting it block by block.
Yes. Use the nakedcatplugins_lang_attr_highlight_color PHP filter and return the color you want. Here’s a Gist example. If your are working on a WordCamp website, or you don’t want to mess around with PHP, you can also add custom CSS to change the color, overriding our --nakedcatplugins-lang-attr-highlight-color variable. Here’s a Gist example.
