Description

Description

After installing docusaurus-theme-search-typesense 0.15.0-0 in docusaurus and setting i18n in docusaurus.config.js to "defaultLocale: 'zh-Hans', locales: ['zh-Hans ']" in docusaurus.config.js, the search box functions normally after publishing, but the search box UI still shows English.

If you add algolia node to the themeConfig (keep the typesense node), the search box UI can display the localized language normally, and the search is also using the typesense.

Expected Behavior

Following the locale configuration, the search box UI shows the corresponding language
For example, "Search docs" is displayed as "Search" in Chinese.

Research direction

Start with the i18n settings in docusaurus.config.js and trace how the Typesense search theme receives the locale, comparing the behavior with the added Algolia configuration. Verify the search UI uses the configured Chinese locale with Typesense alone, while preserving search functionality after publishing.
