[Resolved] Avoid browser redirect if language in url

Problem:
Customer has a problem with the recently enabled "Automatic Redirection Based on Browser Language" functionality. Your site is configured to work with different directories in the URL format option (/en/, /it/, etc.). If a customer opens the site from an external link with a custom language (for example, /zh_hans/ sent by mail), on first opening the browser language is selected using the browser redirect function (for example, /en/ ). If the customer closes the page without browsing or interacting with the site and clicks the emailed link again, the site displays correctly in the language requested in the URL (/zh_hans/). The client asks if there is a way to ignore the browser redirect if the language is in the URL and use the browser redirect only if the URL does not specify the requested language.
Solution:
We explain that the current behavior is as expected and provide a link to the documentation for clarity:
https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/language-setup/automatic-redirect-based-on-browser-language/ . We also suggest that any customization to change this behavior would require custom work, which is outside the scope of our support. We recommend hiring a WPML developer or contractor to implement the desired functionality:
