      I am using the standard method to insert a post on-the-fly:

      $post_data = array(
'post_author' => $author_id,
'post_category' => array($category_id),
'tags_input' => $tags,
'post_title' => $title,
'post_content' => $content,
'post_type' => 'post',
'post_status' => 'publish'
);
$post_id = wp_insert_post($post_data);

      Can you tell me the parameter so that wordpress can set the language for language switcher for this post like
      ‘language_switcher’ => ‘FR’;

      Sorry for the delay.

      First you need to build an array for the switcher:

      $switcher = array(
	
	'urls' => array(

		'fr' => false,
		'en' => 'https://',
	),
	'main' => 'fr',
);

      Then update the 2 following post meta data:

      update_post_meta( $post_id, 'lsw_language_switcher', $switcher);

update_post_meta( $post_id, 'lsw_main_language', $switcher['main']);

      If you are editing a post that already has settings don’t forget to merge the previous array with the new one:

      $switcher= get_post_meta( $post_id, 'lsw_language_switcher', true);

// add/modify english url

$switcher[urls]['en'] = 'https://';

update_post_meta( $post_id, 'lsw_language_switcher', $switcher);
