Layout: names, columns and flag size
Go to Settings β Language Switcher β Modal β Layout.
How language names are written
| Choice | Shows | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Own language (default) | The name in its own language, with the English name underneath | Deutsch / German |
| English | The English name only | German |
| Both | Both names on one line | Deutsch Β· German |
Own language is best for most sites: visitors look for their language in a script they can read. This setting is also used in the switcher button, the dropdown, the grid and the suggestion banner.
Columns
| Choice | Result |
|---|---|
| Auto (default) | As many columns as fit the window |
| 2, 3 or 4 | That number of columns. On small phones, 3 and 4 become 2 so names stay readable |
Flag size in the picker: 16 to 48 pixels (default 24). It also sets the flag size in the Language Grid.
