Problem: The client reported that the language menu on their website was displaying vertically instead of horizontally, and they were unsure if this was due to a theme or WPML issue. Solution: We recommended the following steps: 1. Navigate to WP Dashboard > WPML > Languages > Menu Language Switcher. 2. Click the pencil icon next to the menu to open the settings pop-up. 3. In the "Language menu items style" section, select the "List of languages" option instead of the "Dropdown" option. 4. Click the save button. After these adjustments, the language menu should display horizontally on the front end of the website. For more information, please visit: Language Switcher Options
