    Thank you Thomas for the help.
    Now I’ve added the custom field, but the Bible references are not recognized. I tested by changing the global default Bible version in settings and that works. It seems that the custom field is being ignored. Perhaps you would test this text with LTB_BIBLE_VERSION = HUN as a custom field setting on your system.

    I find that the links are done prior to saving the post, so for now I can just set the global variable and save all my Hungarian posts, then set it back to English.

    When you say “using the metadata of a post” what do you mean exactly? Reading this https://www.wpbeginner.com/glossary/metadata/ I doubt you are talking about author or date. It seems like meta description could mess up SEO and the way google would display the post. Do you mean a custom field? I installed Yoast but am still not sure what “Link to Bible” is looking for.

    I understand your reluctance to bind the plugin to another plugin, but both Polylang and WPML (the main multilingual solutions) clearly mark each post and page by language. If you know the language, it wouldn’t be hard to build a table.

    What about basing the language and version on meta data from the category? I am less concerned about SEO issues and there are less categories than posts to edit. Still, I need to know are you looking at meta descriptions or something else?

    Since the Bible links are inserted during post-save, could I change the language and Bible translation of the website temporarily, then select all the posts I want to reprocess and resave in the Hungarian language? What would be the best mechanism to do that?
