Displaying the correct language version

How does language detection work?

Our accessibility widget automatically adjusts the display language based on the lang attribute of your site’s <html> tag.

Examples of correct configuration of the lang attribute :

  • German: <html lang="de"> or <html lang="de-DE">
  • English: <html lang="en"> or <html lang="en-GB">
  • French: <html lang="fr"> or <html lang="fr-FR">

The widget detects both language codes in two-letter format (de, en, fr), as well as full (de-DE, en-GB, fr-FR). If the language in lang is supported by the widget, it will be automatically applied.

Widget not displaying in the correct language?

If the widget does not display in the expected language, check the following steps:

  1. Make sure that the <html> tag on your site is correctly set to the lang attribute .
  2. Check that the language code used is supported by the widget.
  3. Clear your browser cache and refresh the page.
  4. If the problem persists, please contact us.
