Move language and country selector to header CRAFT THEME

Shopify Discussion

Topic summary

A user wants to relocate the country/region and language selector menus from the footer to the header of their Shopify store (next to the search button) while using the Craft theme. They provided their store URL (theinkjob.com) and an attached image showing the current placement.

Responses received:

  • Multiple respondents confirmed this requires custom coding to move selector elements between theme sections
  • One expert noted the modification is “quite complicated” and recommended hiring a Shopify developer
  • The original poster has some coding experience but may leave the selectors in their current location if the work is too extensive

Current status: The issue remains unresolved. A second user later commented with the same request for their store (celsius-roasters.fr), wanting the language switcher near the account icon instead of the footer. Previous solutions they tried were designed for other themes and caused layout issues with account/cart icons.

I have some experience in coding but I am not an expert. I thought it would be really easy to do this thing and I wanted just to check it. If it’s a lot of work to do, maybe I’ll leave it there.

Hello everybody,

I have the same issue on my online shop. I would like to show the language switcher in the header, close to the account icon ideally instead of in the footer.

I’ve tried a few solutions but seemed more adapter to the other Shopify themes (it would move the account and cart icons)
