I don’t have a problem getting the language buttons on the menu — that’s already done. I think it’s just a matter of the theme not having a top bar menu, only one below the site header. I’d like to create a menu at the top of the screen where only the language buttons are found.

I also want to make the width of the main column content larger both for articles and for pages. I added the suggested wp-block-group setting to the “Additional CSS” block in the Customize page. However it does not have any effect.
