    I read in the documentation (https://polylang.pro/doc/the-language-switcher/) that there are 6 ways to add a language switcher. The first two are available in the free plugin.

    I am using the Free Polylang, and I now want to change my (classic) theme to a block based theme.

    Do I need to upgrade to Polylang Pro, as classic menus and widgets are no longer supported in block themes ?

    Hello,

    Polylang Pro is the best solution for block themes. We however provide a way to use the classic widgets and classic menus in block themes with https://wordpress.org/plugins/fse-classic which is compatible with Polylang.

    Hello,

    I tested the legacy widgets block provided by your “Site Editor Classic Features” plugin : it does the job. Thank you for the support !

    Is there a way to make the menu responsive when using fse-classic?

    Hello @acp693,
    It’s usually the theme that manages responsive content. So with custom CSS/JS it’d be possible to make the menu responsive.

    I have found the way to translate WordPress block theme with free version of Polylang plugin. Briefly speaking:

    1. Make shortcode for language swicher and add it to your header
    2. Make separate templates for pages in each language
    3. Done – your block theme is multilingual as classic theme and you used only native WordPress functionality without any additianal plugins.
      Delailed instruction is written in my article:
