markoU-2	Hi, I also have another issue. I would want the pages to be opened in a local (browser) language. If the browser language is chinese, the pages would open in chinese and so on. I didn't get this work yet

Marcel Supporter Languages: English (English ) German (Deutsch ) Timezone: Europe/Madrid (GMT+02:00)	Hi Marko, Thank you for contacting WPML Support. I see you have the Browser language Redirect already active under hidden link. Did you have any errors using this function?

Marcel Supporter Languages: English (English ) German (Deutsch ) Timezone: Europe/Madrid (GMT+02:00)	I changed my second browser to Vietnamese and was able to reproduce the issue on your live site and my Cloudways installation. The first time it was opening correct to /vi, the second time it's switching to /fi (on your live site (fi/fi). I am still debugging. Best Marcel
