How to add language switching functionality to my blog header?

Hello, I’m looking for development advice for an English & French blog I’m building. I’m a novice developer. In my header I want to add a link to switch the language version of a page (‘FR’ on English pages, ‘EN’ on French pages):

The header file is a global group, with the navigation built as a Menu:

Within the Menu the header links are inserted as a Navigation item, with all links currently hard-coded.

I think the solution may be in one of the following Actions available for the links… but it has to offer some sort of dynamic ability to check if there is another language version to a page, and to serve it up when clicked. Anyone know if this is possible with any of these Actions, and if so, how?

Btw I’m aware of the Language Switcher module… but I’m not sure if/how to incorporate it into my header.

Any help you can provide is appreciated!

@IPars I don’t believe theres a way to do this via the Navigation area in HubSpot. You would need to use that Language Switcher module and add it to your header next to your navigation perhaps. Depending on your comfort level in manipulating the Menu module, you could restructure the menu to include the Language Switcher, too.
I also noticed you’re using the old drag and drop CMS templates! Have you explored using a Theme yet? Theme templates are easier to use (in my opinion) and would give you more flexibility on creating and structuring your header with the nav, logo, language swticher, etc.
