Hi, I am using Vantage premium theme and would like to place language icons on the right in the main menu next to the search. Is there any possibility to do that by placing the second menu next to the main menu? I would be happy with the widget but not sure how to place the widget in this area.
Thank you,
Goran
Hi Goran
Thanks for running Vantage.
This is unfortunately a little outside of our support scope at the moment. The theme doesn’t have a widget area, only in the header when the regular masthead is being used. That said, let me take a quick stab at this tonight and see if I can’t work up a solution. I’ll come back to you asap.
Here is a child theme you could try. If you have a child theme already running then you’ll just need to use the functions.php file from this child theme as well as the single selector I’ve inserted into style.css.

You can install the child theme from Appearance > Themes > Add New: Upload Theme. Child themes do require you to redo Appearance > Customize and Appearance > Menu settings.
It’s not a super intelligent solution. It assumes you’re not using the search in menu option. Once installed a new widget area will be available at Appearance > Widgets. You can adjust where the widget you add is positioned using the selector you’ll find in the style.css file of the child theme. You can edit this via Appearance > Editor once the child theme is activated. Below that you’ll find a breakpoint as you might need to shift your widget up into the header below a certain resolution. You can adjust this breakpoint and what happens at that breakpoint using the second selector in style.css of the child theme.
Try the child theme and decide whether it works before redoing any Customizer settings.
