==========================================================
Pure TypoScript language menu (For backward compatibility)
==========================================================

..  attention::
    It is still possible to create a menu with :typoscript:`special = userfunction`
    for backward compatibility reasons to be used with HMENU.

    The :ref:`LanguageMenuProcessor <LanguageMenuProcessor>` can be used to
    create a language menu styled by Fluid.

See :ref:`TYPO3 11.5 - Language menu <t3tsref/11.5:hmenu-special-language>` for examples
how to use the language menu with the HMENU.
