How can I display alternate language options on my website?

Hi , I have two language for the website, English & Chinese

I am wondering if it's possible to display the opposite language? For example,

If i am on English version now, can the language selector show Chinese (in Chinese word) so people will know that we have other language option. I am using flow theme

Thanks!

Please try below code to do this.

1. Go to "Online Store" -> "Themes".

2. Select Edit code.

3. Go to language-localization.liquid file.

4. Paste below code instead of the line "<span>{{ localization.language.endonym_name | capitalize }}</span>"

{%- for language in localization.available_languages -%}
      {% if localization.language.iso_code != language.iso_code %}
        <span> {{ language.endonym_name | capitalize }}</span>
        {%- break -%}
      {% endif %}
{%- endfor -%}
