langattribute. - Click on the gear icon next to the page name in the "Pages" panel.
- In the Page Settings modal that appears, go to the "SEO" tab.

langattribute with its respective value, such aslang="en"for English orlang="es"for Spanish. - Save your changes and publish your site for the changes to take effect.
