Could it have something to do with the setting for css class (ul) for the language switcher with is set to qtranxs-lang-switch-wrap?

Hi Gunu,
thanks for the quick reply.
I checked. I do have the option of adding custom CSS to my theme just like with the plugin. Which is why I didn’t interfere with any CSS customization apart from that if I recall correctly.

I did change the code to

.qtranxs_language_chooser { list-style-type:none; float:left; }

ul.qtranxs_language_chooser > .active {
display:none;
}

.qtranxs_language_chooser li { float:inline; margin-left:5px }

.qtranxs_flag {
width: 67px !important;
height: 50px !important;
background-size: 67px 50px !important;
}

and deleted the CSS from my theme options

which did put the flags on the left margin of my header. Their size hasn’t changed though, neither has the fact that they are not in line.

I have no idea how to use CSS properly. Could you hint me towards the CSS I would have to add to have the photos beside the text?
Thank you ??

Yet one more question: since I am using a one-page template my menu items refer to, for example

https://test.steffi-woessner.de/#skills

using the hashtag to move to the right section of the page.

However, even though I can switch between languages by clicking on the flags, as soon as I click on a menu item it flips back to my default language. Will qtranslate slug help with that or is there any other way to have the menu link to the appropriate language.

Hi anallabres,

thank you! It did help in placing them horizontally. I will get them further apart by making the transparent background of the new languages flags bigger I guess. Do you happen to know how to center them, too?

Will put the CSS changes into the custom CSS field then and look for the sticky header.

Is there any way I can center the language switcher in the header and have it on the right of the sticky menu (in-line with the menu) or will they automatically appear both the same way?

That’s what I was wondering, too. My website is in English, French and German (I am in Germany) and the page I am using the Upload Button on is in English. However, the “Choose file” button is in German whereas it would need to be in English.

Thank you very much. It’s true, I hadn’t thought about the fact that I changed the site URL.

Sure, sorry.

Hi, I have kind of like the same problem. However, I want the flags in the navigation bar (because I have static pages and the widget won’t show up there).

I did figure out that I can insert the flags by adding <div class=”chooselang”> <?php echo qtrans_generateLanguageSelectCode(‘image’); ?>
in the navigation part. I also deleted the search field.

However, the flags are neither where they should be (on the very right) nor are they centered (they’re at the very top of the black bar). How can I change their position and where? I usually figure out how to manipulate HTML but can’t really write it myself.

Second problem I have is that when I put my mouse over the flags the language shows up (which is fine) but then there is also a small grey box hovering over the flags because that’s what happens with the navigation menu, too. Can I make that not happen for the flags?

Third “problem”: is there a way of exchanging the flags? I would like to use round flags and for English the US flag.

Thanks!!!!
