## |extraire_multi
Thursday 21 May 2020 , by [jack](.././?page=auteur&id_auteur=593&)
This filter allows to extract from a block `<multi>` the part corresponding
to a specific language.
The filter `|extraire_multi{lang}` appliqué à une balise de texte
(`#TEXTE`, `#TITRE`, `#INTRODUCTION`, `#BIO`...) allows to select in *each*
block `<multi>...</multi>` of the concerned text the part corresponding to
the language passed as argument of the filter and this, independently of
the language of the context in which the page is called.
## Example
A field "TITRE" in the "spip_articles" table filled in as follows:
<multi>[en]New article[fr]Nouvel article[ar]مقال جديد</multi>
The simple call of `#TITRE` in a template will produce depending on whether
the page is requested in French (`&lang=fr` dans l’URL) : «`Nouvel
article`», in Arabic (`&lang=ar`) : «`مقال جديد`» or in English
( (`&lang=en`) : «`New article`».
If, for one reason or another, we want the Arabic version of the title to
be displayed, regardless of the context language of the page, then we will
write in the template: ` [(#TITRE*|extraire_multi{ar}|propre)] `
Note that if a translation in the language requested by the filter ("ar"
in the example above) does not exist in the block `<multi>`, the *first*
translation of this block will be returned.
So if, still in the above example, we had asked for `
[(#TITRE*|extraire_multi{it}|propre)] `, «`New article`» would have been
displayed.
