petrC-8	Tell us what you are trying to do? Auto-redirection based on browser language Is there any documentation that you are following? - Is there a similar example that we can see? - What is the link to your site? hidden link Hi, before there was a warning message, about possible issue with indexing of website if Browser language redirect funcion is ON. Now I dont see any, does it mean this issue was solved, and I can now set Browser language redirect, and all languages will be indexed correctly by search engines?

Dražen Duvnjak Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Europe/Zagreb (GMT+01:00)	Hello, when you click to choose the option, a popup message appears with the same warning about the issues. The issue still happens, as it is not up to WPML, Google follows redirect as regular user and gets redirected to other languages. You can read more in the following page: - https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/language-setup/automatic-redirect-based-on-browser-language/how-browser-language-redirect-affects-google-indexing/ Let us know if any other questions. Regards, Drazen
