I'd like to change the language names in the language switcher. Currently, it says "Deutsch English" on my site.
I want it to be "De En".
I have been searching for a solution but couldn't find any except this: http://drupal.org/node/313814
Seems like overkill. Isn't there an easier less complex approach? Thanks.

You could change the language
You could change the language names in

This is not the way to go and
This is not the way to go and it doesn't works with recent D8.
Instead add this code in your theme:
<?php
/**
* Use language code for the language switcher
*
* @param $variables
*/
function MYTHEME_preprocess_links__language_block(&$variables) {
foreach ($variables['links'] as $i => $link) {
// @var \Drupal\language\Entity\ConfigurableLanguage $linkLanguage
$linkLanguage = $link['link']['#options']['language'];
$variables['links'][$i]['link']['#title'] = $linkLanguage->get('id');
}
}
?>
Unfortunately, still valid.
Its been 3 years but unfortunately still this is the only solution. This thing could have been easily managed via CMS.
