Country/Region and Language in the same line (Dawn Theme)

Topic summary

A user working with Shopify’s Dawn theme wants to align the Country/Region and Language selectors on the same line in the footer for mobile view.

Initial Request:

  • Originally asked to keep both elements on one line in mobile mode
  • Later clarified wanting the language selector positioned above the country/region selector
  • Eventually requested both elements side-by-side (matching desktop layout) on mobile

Solution Provided:
A CSS modification was offered for the base.css file:

@media only screen and (max-width: 376px) {
  .footer__column.footer__localization isolate {
    flex-wrap: nowrap;
  }
}

Potential Issue:
The helper warned that keeping elements side-by-side works on standard mobile screens (376px), but on smaller devices (280px), the layout may break or appear cramped due to limited horizontal space. The user was advised to consider this trade-off before implementing the solution.

The discussion remains open regarding whether the user accepts this limitation.

Hi @dreamtechzone_5

Do you mean align in the left? Like this.

if it is check this one.

From your Shopify admin dashboard, click on “Online Store” and then “Themes”.

Find the theme that you want to edit and click on “Actions” and then “Edit code”.

In the “Assets” folder, click on “base.css, style.css or theme.css” file, depending on which file your theme uses to store its CSS styles. At the bottom of the file, add the following CSS code:

@media only screen and (max-wdith: 376px){
.footer__column.footer__localization.isolate {
    justify-content: left;
}
}

And Save.

Thank you. Can country/region and language be kept like this in mobile mode?

Oh you like same on the desktop and higher screen size. We can do that but youll have a problem on more smaller screen size.

The size of this screen in mobiles is 376px its is where is started the language go down. We can continue like that but when the screen size goes to 280px;

it will be like this.

Going on smaller sizes.

Here is the code is used.

@media only screen and (max-width: 376px) {
.footer__localization {
    flex-wrap: nowrap;
}

And Save.
