In this guide, we walk you through the process of customizing the default language names and country flags in your SiteTran language dropdown on your site.

Access The Override Settings For Your Language

Go to the Languages Page

To begin, open the Languages page for your site in SiteTran.

Open the Languages page

Open Manage for the Language

On the Languages page, find the language you want to customize and click Manage <Language>.

Click Manage <Your Language>

Locate the Display & Flag Override Section

After opening that language, scroll down to the Display & Flag Override section.

Locate the Display and Flag Override section

Add Language Overrides

In the Display & Flag Override section, you can directly update how that language appears in your dropdown.

Update Display Name and/or Flag

In the customization interface, you will have two main options:

1. Update the Display Name: Here, you can modify the default name of the language as it appears in the dropdown. This is particularly useful for providing local or colloquial names for languages.

Update Display Name

2. Change the Displayed Flag: Alongside the language name, you can also choose to change the flag that represents the language. This option is ideal for reflecting regional variations or specific cultural representations.

Update Country Flag

Add Your Own Flag Image

For an even more tailored experience, you can add your own flag image to represent a language. To do this, select the first option in the flag override dropdown: Add my own flag img URL

PUT_DESCRIPTION_HERE

This will add an input field in the Country Flag column where you can add a URL for your flag image.

PUT_DESCRIPTION_HERE

After making your desired changes, ensure to save them. Your customizations will now be reflected in the SiteTran language dropdown widget on your website.
