Adding as many languages as you want

Initially, I designed the program for 2 languages only so it’s simple to use for regular users, but you can add as many as you want, and here’s how.

Two steps to add infinity language (repeat).

#1. Edit file language-dropdown.hbs

Find the file language-dropdown.hbs at the path ./partials/nav/language-dropdown.hbs and open it. You will se the block code as below (line 16):

./partials/nav/language-dropdown.hbs
...
    {{!-- Example of adding one more fr language --}}
    {{!-- 1. Change https://yourdomain.com/fr/ into your specific language you want --}}
    {{!-- 2. Change "fr" text as well --}}


    {{!--
    {{#match @site.locale "!=" "fr"}}
    <a class="btn-language px-5 py-2 w-full"
        href="https://yourdomain.com/fr/">
        <svg viewBox="0 0 100 100" aria-hidden="true" class="size-3.5 min-w-3.5">
            <use href="{{asset 'cache/sprite.svg#global-icon'}}"></use>
        </svg>
        fr
    </a>
    {{/match}}
    --}}
    {{!--  Example of adding one more fr language --}}
...

You need remove {{!-- and --}} , we will have the block as below in final:

Replace 3 places with your language you want, for example de or tr ,etc

./partials/nav/language-dropdown.hbs
...
    {{!-- Example of adding one more fr language --}}
    {{!-- 1. Change https://yourdomain.com/fr/ into your specific language you want --}}
    {{!-- 2. Change "fr" text as well --}}


    {{#match @site.locale "!=" "fr"}}
    <ul class="...">
        <a class="btn-language-items"
            href="https://yourdomain.com/fr/">
            <svg viewBox=...">
                <use href="..."></use>
            </svg>
            fr
        </a>
    </ul>
    {{/match}}


    {{#match @site.locale "!=" "de"}}
    <ul class="...">
        <a class="btn-language-items"
            href="https://yourdomain.com/de/">
            <svg viewBox=...">
                <use href="..."></use>
            </svg>
            fr
        </a>
    </ul>
    {{/match}}
...

Replace 3 places with your language you want, for example de or tr ,etc

  • {{#match @site.locale "!=" "fr"}}
  • https://yourdomain.com/fr/
  • fr (text)

Save it and done.

#2. Edit file multilingual-tags.hbs

Find the file multilingual-tags.hbs at the path ./partials/site-wide/multilingual-tags.hbs and open it.

./partials/site-wide/multilingual-tags.hbs
{{#has tag="#multilingual"}} ... {{!--
<link
  rel="alternate"
  href="https://yourdomain.com/fr/{{slug}}/"
  hreflang="fr"
/>
--}} ... {{/has}}

You need remove {{!-- and --}} (line 7) and change https://yourdomain.com/fr/{{slug}}/ and fr into your domain with 3rd language you want.

For example:

./partials/site-wide/multilingual-tags.hbs
<link
  rel="alternate"
  href="https://yourdomain.com/de/{{slug}}/"
  hreflang="de"
/>

Save it and done.
