Overview of the issue
If you are using BuddyBoss, you may notice that the language switcher is missing flag icons, displaying only blank icons instead. This issue affects both the top menu and side panel language switchers.
Workaround
Please, make sure of having a full backup of your site before proceeding.
For fixing the BuddyBoss panel:
- Open the …/wp-content/themes/buddyboss-theme/inc/theme/functions.php file.
- Look for line 582.
- Replace:
function bb_buddypanel_menu_atts( $atts, $item, $args ) { if ( isset( $args->theme_location ) && ( 'buddypanel-loggedin' === $args->theme_location || 'buddypanel-loggedout' === $args->theme_location ) ) { $atts['class'] = 'bb-menu-item'; $header = (int) buddyboss_theme_get_option( 'buddyboss_header' ); if ( 3 === $header ) { $buddypanel_side = buddyboss_theme_get_option( 'buddypanel_position_h3' ); } else { $buddypanel_side = buddyboss_theme_get_option( 'buddypanel_position' ); } if ( $buddypanel_side && $buddypanel_side == 'right' ) { $atts['data-balloon-pos'] = 'left'; } else { $atts['data-balloon-pos'] = 'right'; } $atts['data-balloon'] = $item->title; } return $atts; } - With:
function bb_buddypanel_menu_atts( $atts, $item, $args ) { if ( isset( $args->theme_location ) && ( 'buddypanel-loggedin' === $args->theme_location || 'buddypanel-loggedout' === $args->theme_location ) ) { $atts['class'] = 'bb-menu-item'; $header = (int) buddyboss_theme_get_option( 'buddyboss_header' ); if ( 3 === $header ) { $buddypanel_side = buddyboss_theme_get_option( 'buddypanel_position_h3' ); } else { $buddypanel_side = buddyboss_theme_get_option( 'buddypanel_position' ); } if ( $buddypanel_side && $buddypanel_side == 'right' ) { $atts['data-balloon-pos'] = 'left'; } else { $atts['data-balloon-pos'] = 'right'; } $atts['data-balloon'] = $item->title; // WPMl workaround for compsupp-7115 if (class_exists('Sitepress')) { $atts['data-balloon'] = wp_strip_all_tags($item->title); } } return $atts; } - In the same file around line 895, replace:
if ( ! $icon ) { if ( in_array( 'bp-menu', $item->classes ) ) { if ( 'bp-profile-nav' === $item->classes[1] ) { $icon = 'bb-icon-user'; } elseif ( 'bp-settings-nav' === $item->classes[1] ) { $icon = 'bb-icon-cog'; } elseif ( 'bp-activity-nav' === $item->classes[1] ) { $icon = 'bb-icon-activity'; } elseif ( 'bp-notifications-nav' === $item->classes[1] ) { $icon = 'bb-icon-bell'; } elseif ( 'bp-messages-nav' === $item->classes[1] ) { $icon = 'bb-icon-inbox'; } elseif ( 'bp-friends-nav' === $item->classes[1] || 'bp-friends-sub-nav' === $item->classes[1] ) { $icon = 'bb-icon-user-friends'; } elseif ( 'bp-groups-nav' === $item->classes[1] || 'bp-groups-sub-nav' === $item->classes[1] ) { $icon = 'bb-icon-users'; } elseif ( 'bp-forums-nav' === $item->classes[1] ) { $icon = 'bb-icon-comments-square'; } elseif ( 'bp-videos-nav' === $item->classes[1] ) { $icon = 'bb-icon-video'; } elseif ( 'bp-documents-nav' === $item->classes[1] ) { $icon = 'bb-icon-folder-alt'; } elseif ( 'bp-photos-nav' === $item->classes[1] ) { $icon = 'bb-icon-image'; } elseif ( 'bp-invites-nav' === $item->classes[1] ) { $icon = 'bb-icon-envelope'; } elseif ( 'bp-logout-nav' === $item->classes[1] ) { $icon = 'bb-icon-sign-out'; } elseif ( 'bp-login-nav' === $item->classes[1] ) { $icon = 'bb-icon-sign-in'; } elseif ( 'bp-register-nav' === $item->classes[1] ) { $icon = 'bb-icon-clipboard'; } elseif ( 'bp-courses-nav' === $item->classes[1] ) { $icon = 'bb-icon-graduation-cap'; } } if ( ! $icon ) { $item->title = "<i class='bb-icon-file'></i><span class='link-text'>{$item->title}</span>"; } else { $item->title = "<i class='_mi _before buddyboss bb-icon-l " . $icon .

"'></i><span class='link-text'>{$item->title}</span>"; } } }
For fixing the language switcher on the BuddyBoss header menu:
- In the same file, around the line 1056.
- Just before:
if ( ! $icon ) { $classes[] = 'no-icon'; - Add:
// WPML Workround for compsupp-7139 if (in_array( 'wpml-ls-item', $item->classes)) { $icon = 'bb-icon-globe'; }
