Hi @AMOne . As you are using Dawn this is actually possible to request as part of each paid Shopify account’s 60 minutes of design time from Shopify Theme Support:

@AMOne Just put language selector code in your desire location where you want to add.
Look into the below picture i have added.

Hello @AMOne ,

To move the language switcher to the header or menu in the Dawn theme on Shopify, you can follow these steps:

  • Go to Online store > Themes-> Actions → Edit code → Sections
  • Click on the “header.liquid” file to open it.
  • Scroll down to the section of the code that contains the language switcher code. This should look something like this:
{% if settings.language_dropdown %}
  {{ 'layout.nav.language_dropdown' | t }}
{% endif %}
  • Cut this code by highlighting it and pressing “Ctrl + X” (or “Command + X” on a Mac).
  • Scroll up to the top of the file and find the section of code that contains the main header navigation. This should look something like this:

  {% section 'header-nav' %}
  • Paste the language switcher code immediately above this section of code, like this:
{% if settings.language_dropdown %}
  {{ 'layout.nav.language_dropdown' | t }}
{% endif %}

  {% section 'header-nav' %}
  • Save your changes

Hope these can help.

Have a nice day,

Could you explain how can I get this switcher to header, if my current theme (dawn) have it on footer?

there is absolutelly no code regarding language (not even language word) in header.liquid file. Only in footer. Probably worth mentioning I use sticky header.
