This theme component relocates the header language selector down to the sidebar footer for logged in users.
Why this change?
In the default Discourse layout, the header can quickly become cluttered, especially on active communities that add custom header links etc.
The language selector is fundamentally a “set it and forget it” type of setting. Users usually select their preferred language once and stick with it.
Moving it to the sidebar footer cleans up the header UI while keeping the setting easily accessible whenever needed.
