Hi,
I have to know how we can redirect directly into browser language folder without loading the default first and then redirect to browser language that is a bad user experience.
We use default language English in folder /en

Hi,
Hope you are trying to achieve the following. Please confirm and correct me with more details If I am wrong. Also, share me the debug information for more clarity.
You have selected *Use directory for default language* option of WPML>>Languages>>Language URL format>>Different languages in directories. For an example, your site will be *example.com*. Your primary language is English and secondary language is *French*. Now you want to redirect user to *example.com/en* when visiting *example.com*.
If so, please choose *HTML file* option of WPML>>Languages>>Language URL format>>Different languages in directories>>Use directory for default language. Then create a PHP file *redirect.php* with the following code and place the file in root directory of the site. Add *redirect.php* in *HTML file* field and save the changes.
<?php
header('Location: <em><u>hidden link</u></em>');
exit;
?>
Please check this tutorial for more details -- https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/language-setup/directory-default-language/

This is already done! Yes we have these settings now.
BUT we don't want to use your WPML javascript redirection. We want to use href on server like for Polylang does.
Please advise how to use.
regards
Pier

Hi,
For your kind information, right now this is the only option we having and it is an HTTP request. Please try it and let me know your feedback.
1. In WPML -> Languages :
- Choose 'Different languages in directories'
- Enable 'Use directory for default language'
- Select 'HTML file'
- Insert 'lang.php' inside the text field below
2. In your WordPress installation root directory, the same where you can find your wp-config.php file:
- add a new file and name it 'lang.php'
- edit this file with a text editor and insert the following code (change the URL according to your preferred default language):
<?php
header( 'Location: <em><u>hidden link</u></em>' ) ;
?>
I will be forwarding the details to our development team as a feature request to add an option like the following if we are choosing *Different languages in directories*.
- HTML file
- Root page
- Redirect to default language

Again... this is the exact settings we have now.
I meant how to manage browser redirection on the lang.php, I suppose we have to disable 'Redirect visitors based on browser language only if translations exist' as it is for javascript.
Please let me know php code to add in lang.php :
If browser language is German for example,then header should be:
<?php
header( 'Location: hidden link' ) ;
?>
If language is French then:
<?php
header( 'Location: hidden link' ) ;
?>

Hi,
Please do the following modifications in the *lang.php* file and make sure you are getting the expected result now.
*From*
<?php
header( 'Location: <em><u>hidden link</u></em>' ) ;
?>
*To*
<?php
if(substr( $_SERVER['HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE'], 0, 2 ) == 'de' ) {
header( 'Location: <em><u>hidden link</u></em>' );
}else if( substr( $_SERVER['HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE'], 0, 2 ) == 'fr' ) {
header( 'Location: <em><u>hidden link</u></em>' );
}else {
header( 'Location: <em><u>hidden link</u></em>' );
}
?>

Unfortunately, on load the product search link to default language and not browser language.
I have checked the "Store a language cookie to support language filtering for AJAX"
Please let me know.

Hello Pier,
Did you find a solution since your last message?
I've followed this supposedly solution and my site still displays the default language before redirecting tot he browser language.
