Somewhere in my code I need to know what is the current language and display a certain custom field or another one based on this knowledge.

How can I know this information ?

WPML defines constants that you can use go get the current language:

  • ICL_LANGUAGE_CODE - current language code (eg: en,fr,sp).
  • ICL_LANGUAGE_NAME_EN - Name of the current language in English (eg: English, French. Spanish).
  • ICL_LANGUAGE_NAME - Name of current language, in the current language (eg: English, Français, Español).
