Hi
My blog is Polish English, with a language switcher. At the moment Polish is the default language.

Since WPML does not recommend using automatic redirection due to potential interactions with Google indexing, there is a very big risk that the user will not see the language switcher and immediately close the website.

Therefore, since there are more English-speaking users, I am considering changing the default language to English.

But I am very worried that it will destroy my previous work and cause major complications. I would be grateful for help in carrying out such an operation. How high is the risk of what I need to be aware of?

regards,
Grzegorz
