Re: Languages not showing in Language Selector

Languages not showing in Language Selector

Hi,

I have English set as my default language, and I added 2 more and published them.

I'm using the Dawn 2.0 theme.

 

I added the following code to my footer section, in order to see all available languages:

 

{%- for language in localization.available_languages -%}
<p>{{ language.name }}</p>
{%- endfor -%}

 

It only returned 'English'
I also enabled the language selector and the dropdown menu only contains English.
I'm wondering why the other languages aren't shown?

Contacted support and fixed it. What you will need to do is not only to add the language, but also select the language in the market in the setting. After you set that up, it shows more than 1 language.

@rc28 Would you mind sending instructions on how to do this part please?

"select the language in the market in the setting"

I would really appreciate the help!

Just figure this out. You might want to go to Setting>Markets>Manage (under Primary market)>Manage (under Domains and languages), and check the box of language that you would like to show on your website.
