[Support request] Post query loop and languages

[Alfredo]

I’m creating a Block – Content template for my blog posts and I’m trying to add a GB query loop at the end for displaying posts in the same category.

The visual editor is displaying only posts in English but when I see the page live it is displaying all the posts in the 3 languages. How can I prevent it from doing that? I’m using Polylang and I have 3 languages.

Hi Alfredo,

For clarity, can you provide a screenshot of the issue from your end?

Hi there,

what parameters does the query loop have ?

Only the ones you can see in the query loop screenshot.

– Taxonomies -> Categories (current post terms)
– Exclude current post

Ok, try adding this PHP Snippet to your site:

add_filter( 'generateblocks_query_loop_args', function( $query_args, $attributes ) {
    // Check your logic to apply the filtering only to specific loop
    if (
        ! empty( $attributes['className'] ) &&
        strpos( $attributes['className'], 'polylang' ) !== false
    ) {
        // Merge the current $query_args which contains arguments defined in the editor with your ordering arguments
        return array_merge( $query_args, array(
        'lang' => pll_current_language(),
        ) );
    }

    return $query_args;
}, 10, 2 );

And then edit the Query Loop, and select its Grid Block and give that an Advanced > Additional CSS Class of: polylang
