    Hi,
    My names Jason.
    I’ve just started on a project which required translation into multiple languages (first time I have ever done this). And came across your plugin and thought it would be a brilliant solution. BUT I hit a road block.
    The digital manager of the project wants it to not only be language targeted but location/region targeted, in the tags the plugin generates as a example: <link rel=”alternate” href=”url” hreflang=”fr”> it specifies a language but not a location such as: <link rel=”alternate” href=”url” hreflang=”fr-be”> which they want it to do.
    I want to just simply know if there is away of doing this with your plugin before I spend more time on development. Or whether I need to find another solution.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,

    There is a filter pll_rel_hreflang_attributes allowing you to customize the hreflang to match your needs.

    Hi Chouby,
    Thanks for this it helped. (sort off) I figured out how to use it to modify the hreflang. but now it adds my modified ones. But still keeps the original output to example:

    
<link rel="alternate" href="#" hreflang="de-DE" />
<link rel="alternate" href="#" hreflang="fr-FR" />
<link rel="alternate" href="#" hreflang="es-ES" />
<link rel="alternate" href="#" hreflang="it-IT" />
<link rel="alternate" href="#" hreflang="en" />
<link rel="alternate" href="#" hreflang="de" />
<link rel="alternate" href="#" hreflang="fr" />
<link rel="alternate" href="#" hreflang="es" />
<link rel="alternate" href="#" hreflang="it" />

    Is there way of removing the original ones? as my digital manager says this wont work the way it is currently.

    The filter allows you to manipulate all hreflangs. So you can remove them too.

    How do you mean? like this:

    remove_filter( 'pll_rel_hreflang_attributes', 'filter_pll_rel_hreflang_attributes', 10, 1 );

    Tried and didn’t work as expected.
