 * Hi,
 * the “Quicklinks” are not in the right place in my posts and pages where I would
   like them to be due to using a LayoutBuilder.
 * So could you please give me the code snippet for the output of the “Quicklinks”,
   so that I could add it into my single.php and page.php or alternatively in my
   functions.php please?

 * Hi csigncsign,
 * You can use `get_translations` function to output a list of language links, here
   is an example that adds the menu before the content. As you can see we are using`
   FALSE` in `include_base` argument, that way current site is not added in the 
   result:
 *     ```
       add_filter( 'the_content', function( $content ) {
   
           $items = mlp_custom_get_language_items();
   
           $output = '<ul>';
           foreach ( $items as $item ) {
               $output .= '<li><a href="'. esc_url($item['url']) .'">'. esc_attr($item['name']) .'</a></li>';
           }
           $output .= '</ul>';
   
           return $output . $content;
       });
   
       /**
        * Get language items.
        *
        * @return array|void
        */
       function mlp_custom_get_language_items() {
   
           $api = apply_filters( 'mlp_language_api', NULL );
           if ( ! is_a( $api, 'Mlp_Language_Api_Interface' ) ) {
               return;
           }
   
           /**
            * @type int    $site_id      Base site
            * @type int    $content_id   post or term_taxonomy ID, *not* term ID
            * @type string $type         @see Mlp_Language_Api::get_request_type()
            * @type bool   $strict       When TRUE (default) only matching exact
            *                                 translations will be included
            * @type string $search_term  If you want to translate a search
            * @type string $post_type    For post type archives
            * @type bool   $include_base Include the base site in returned list
            */
           $translations_args = array(
               'strict'       => FALSE,
               'include_base' => FALSE,
           );
           $translations      = $api->get_translations( $translations_args );
           if ( empty( $translations ) ) {
               return;
           }
   
           $items = array();
           /** @var Mlp_Translation_Interface $translation */
           foreach ( $translations as $site_id => $translation ) {
   
               $url = $translation->get_remote_url();
               if ( empty( $url ) ) {
                   continue;
               }
   
               $language = $translation->get_language();
               $active   = FALSE;
               if ( get_current_blog_id() === $site_id ) {
                   $active = TRUE;
               }
   
               $items[ $site_id ] = array(
                   'url'    => $url,
                   'http'   => $language->get_name( 'http' ),
                   'name'   => $language->get_name( 'native' ),
                   'active' => $active,
               );
           }
   
           return $items;
       }
       ```

 * **meanwhile I have found in another forum a better and shorter way:**
 *     ```
       function mlp_show_linked_elements_mod() {
       	if( function_exists( 'mlp_show_linked_elements' ) ) {
       		return mlp_show_linked_elements( 
       			array(
       			'link_text' => 'flag', // oder 'text' oder 'text_flag'
       			'show_current_blog' => TRUE   // TRUE - display the current language, FALSE - hide the current language (default)
       			) 
       		);
       	}
   
       }
   
       add_shortcode( 'mlp_show', 'mlp_show_linked_elements_mod' ); 
       ```
   
 * and then use the shortcode
 * `[mlp_show]`
 * **or alternatively for the theme’s function.php:**
 *     ```
       add_action( 'avia_meta_header', 'avia_mlp_language_switch', 10);
       function avia_mlp_language_switch()
       {
       if(function_exists( 'mlp_show_linked_elements' )) mlp_show_linked_elements( array( 'link_text' => 'flag', 'show_current_blog' => FALSE ) );
       }
       ```
