Background of the issue:
I have enabled custom language switchers with three languages: English (en), German (de), and Spanish (es) on my site hidden link.

Symptoms:
The dropdown menu for the language switcher is not clickable, and the language options are not selectable.

Questions:
Why is the custom language switcher dropdown not working?
How can I make the language options selectable in the dropdown?

I have set English as the default language, followed by German and then Spanish. When I open the language dropdown, I can select German without any issue, but when I try to move the cursor to Spanish, the dropdown closes automatically and I’m unable to select the third language.

Hi,

Welcome to WPML support. I will answer this question before the ticket is assigned to one of my colleagues.

The problem seems to be related to the CSS used on your theme, you can test it by changing the theme to a default one and see if it works or not.

Meanwhile, I tried to check but it seems you already decided to use the line mode at the top right section of your website.

Thanks.
