  • but I think I must be doing something wrong.

      <footer>
    <ul class="nav-language">
      <li <?= $page->isOpen() ? 'class="active"' : 'class=" "' ?> ><a href="<?= $page->url('en') ?>" aria-label="change to English language" class="md">EN</a></li>
      <li <?= $page->isOpen() ? 'class="active"' : 'class=" "' ?> ><a href="<?= $page->url('ga') ?>" aria-label="change to Irish language" class="md">GA</a></li>
    </ul>
  </footer>
