Webflow localizations for country and language options

At a glance

Hi everyone!

Does anyone know if Webflow Localizations can handle a site that localizes by country and also gives language options for each one?
I’ve got a client who needs a selector with 5 countries, and each country should have two language options.

Thanks a lot!

two separate dropdowns might be the biggest challenge with this because Webflow Localization does not think about languages in this way - so they only provide a single dropdown.

However, with some custom JS - you could probably get this done if you have a dropdown with the 5 countries, and if you select one of those countries it toggle the options within the second drop down with only those languages - I would "think" thats possible.

But the simple answer is that - no webflow localization does not have the ability to handle that level of complexity from my experience.

Thank you so much for taking the time to respond, !
I believe they want each country to be a separate site (different content)... The best approach I could think of is using a reverse proxy and having 5 sites, each with its own localization (language), while letting them know it’ll be quite a maintenance challenge, haha

Thanks again!
