How to hide a language code from specific page in Polylang plugin


I am working on WordPress website in which I am using multilingual functionality. and I am using POLYLANG plugin.

I have a situation in which , I have to remove language code from URL , for SPECIFIC PAGES only this is how URL generates : site_url/nl/page_slug

and I want to create URL like this site_url/page_slug

So , for some of the pages I want to remove nl

How do I make it happen ?


Solution

  • I have used the below filter and the issue was resolved.

    function filter_pll_check_canonical_url( $redirect_url, $language ) {
       $redirect_url = str_replace('nl', '', $redirect_url);
    }
    add_filter( 'pll_check_canonical_url', 'filter_pll_check_canonical_url', 10, 2 );
    

    I am checking with the current URL, if the current URL has a language code so replaced language code with a blank space and URL will seem to like:-

    site_url/nl/page_slug => site_url/page_slug
