Header: Language selector
Language selector
The Language selector lets customers switch the storefront language. It shows the languages you've enabled for your store and changes the site language when one is chosen. Use it as a standalone block when you want the language switcher placed on its own, separate from currency and country.
What it shows
A small selector listing your active languages. Picking one reloads the store in that language. The available languages come from your store's language settings — this block doesn't add languages, it just lets visitors choose between the ones you offer.
Settings
Setting | What it controls |
|---|---|
Background color | The selector's background |
Text color | The text color |

Font weight | How bold the text is |
Text alignment | Aligns the selector left, center, or right |
Padding | Space inside the selector |
Margin | Space outside the selector |
Layout and visibility
- Width settings for desktop, tablet, and mobile.
- Custom class and block conditions for advanced styling and show/hide rules.
Tips
- Only worth adding if your store actually runs in more than one language.
- If you also offer currency and country switching, the combined Language and currency block keeps all three together and consistent.
- This is a utility control — keep it small and out of the way of your main navigation.
