Background of the issue:
I am trying to fix an issue where the language picker is not shown in the widget picker on my website, hidden link. I want to ensure that only one footer is displayed, which is managed via widgets.

Symptoms:
The website displays the same content in all languages at once, resulting in multiple footers from all languages being displayed instead of a single footer.

Questions:
Why is the language picker not shown in the widget picker?
How can I ensure that only one footer is displayed for each language?

Hi,

Thank you for contacting WPML Support. Sorry to hear you're having issues, I'll do my best to help you out.

I tested this on a fresh WordPress site with the latest WPML plugins, and the "Display on language" option appears correctly in Appearance >> Widgets when selecting the widget, as shown in the attached screenshot.

Can you please follow the below steps and let me know how it goes:

1. Make sure the minimum requirements for WPML meet:
https://wpml.org/home/minimum-requirements/

2. Make sure you are using the latest version of theme and plugins on your site.

3. Please delete all sorts of caches on your site/server cache if any / plugin cache / CDN cache (if any), clear browser cache, and then see if it resolves the issue afterward.

4. If the issue persists, please try to follow the below steps on staging/test site to isolate the cause of this issue:
- Take a backup of your site first for safety reasons.
- Deactivate all plugins except WPML and its add-ons.
- Switch to the default WP theme like 2025.
- If the issue is gone, reactivate each plugin/theme one by one to identify the one causing the issue.

5. Please add the debug report in the Debug Information box. I have also enabled debug info box for your next reply: https://wpml.org/faq/provide-debug-information-faster-support/

Kindly let me know the results,
Thank you for your cooperation
