Hello,

How can I add a language filter (select) to a view that lists posts?

I'm using WPML.

Hi,

Thank you for contacting us and I'd be happy to assist.

I'm afraid, the way Toolset views and WPML post translations work, I can't think of any safe customization or workaround to make this work.

By default, WPML only shows the posts in the view's results that are in the same language that is currently set. A simpler and safer workaround can be to place the WPML's language switcher closer to the view's output and add a note that to see posts in the different languages, you can see this page in the desired language.

regards,
Waqar
