This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
The client is using the Hestia Pro theme on their WordPress site and has added a lot of CSS. They are facing issues with the currency switcher widget, which drops down past the website's footer, creating unwanted black space below it. The client wants to make the currency switcher widget scrollable, change its placement to the top of the website if necessary, and eliminate the black space below the footer.
Solution:
We recommend using PHP to customize the currency switcher and position it anywhere on the page. This can be done by adding the code directly to the theme or through plugins that allow PHP code integration within the page builder. For detailed guidance on placing and customizing the currency switcher, please refer to this existing support ticket: https://wpml.org/forums/topic/placing-and-customizing-the-currency-switcher/#post-11440045
Additionally, you can find more information on using the currency switcher shortcode in our documentation: https://wpml.org/documentation/related-projects/woocommerce-multilingual/multi-currency-support-woocommerce/#currency-switcher-shortcode

Hi there.

You can use PHP to customize the currency switcher and add it anywhere on the page by adding it directly to the theme's code or by using plugins that allow you to add PHP code straight into the page builder.

Please take a look at my colleague's reply in this existing ticket here:

PS: I also created this custom Google Search for you that will show you methods thorugh which you can add PHP code to WordPress: hidden link

I hope that you will find all this information helpful.
