This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The client is experiencing issues with the language switcher in the footer on responsive mode, where it does not allow users to change the language due to the absence of a dropdown menu. Additionally, removing either "native language name" or "language name in the current language" causes the tab below to remain oversized.
Solution:
We recommend using the "List of languages" option for the language switcher. This setting displays all available languages in a list format, which is accessible on both mobile and desktop devices. This approach avoids the need for a dropdown menu, which can be problematic on mobile devices where hovering is not possible.
