 * I need a language code for my web with my custom theme.
    I’ve called the language
   with this on my function : [How to get translation programmatically](http://make.marketpress.com/multilingualpress/2015/02/how-to-get-translations-programmatically/)
   But the result is null, and when I print_r the ($translation), the result is 
   Array(). I’ve set my language site like [this](http://postimg.org/image/liszohb0h/).
   And I have no idea how to call its language code. Please help.

 * Hey there,
 * the article you linked mostly describes how to get _translations_. MLP provides
   a function to get the »locale« (language code) for the current blog: `mlp_get_current_blog_language()`
 * An alternative is `mlp_get_blog_language( int $blog_id )` if you want to get 
   the language for any blog by ID.

 * Yup, it works. 😀
    Thanks for the answer, David.
