Hello There,
Thank you for contacting WPML Support.

I checked your site and can see that the language Switcher is showing properly within the Mini Widget. Please check this screenshot for a better understanding: hidden link

Since the Language switcher is showing properly, Could you please check by clearing the caches from the site? You can also test from the incognito mode of the browser. I hope it will help.

Let me know if you need further assistance in this matter. I will be happy to help.

Best regards,
Prosenjit

I haven't installed any cache plugin. I tried and configured the widget language switcher for services. Shall I do it for a different widget?

Hello There,
I hope you're doing well. Sorry for the delay in responding due to the weekend.

If the language switcher is configured for any specific widget, the language switcher should appear with that widget. Can you provide the link to the page where this widget is located? I'll check and let you know what to do next.

Additionally, if there are other widgets on your site, Please check if the same problem is happening with other widgets or not.

Looking forward to your response.

Best Regards,
Prosenjit

Hello There,
Thank you for sharing the screenshot.

Upon inspecting the front end properly, I noticed that the language switcher at the top is inserted using Shortcode. Now, to modify its appearance, you need to activate the "Custom language switcher" option. Please follow the steps below and see if it helps to solve the issue.

- Go to WPML > Languages
- Scroll down to the "Custom language Switchers" section and enable it.
- Once you enable the option, click on "Customize" and you'll see various options to customize the language switcher.
- Enable Flag from there, make the required adjustment, and save the changes.

I hope the flag will appear correctly after that. Feel free to let me know if you need any further assistance. I will be happy to help.

Best Regards,
Prosenjit
