This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The client wants to understand how redirects based on IP and/or Browser Settings work when using the GeotargetingWP plugin in combination with WPML. They are interested in knowing which of the two (IP or Browser Setting redirects) has higher priority and if it's possible to alter this priority or create combination rules.
Solution:
We explained that the redirect option in WPML is managed with JavaScript and its priority depends on whether the GeotargetingWP plugin triggers before the JavaScript or not. We clarified that WPML does not have an option for browser redirects, so combined rules are only possible if GeotargetingWP allows for them, which we believe is not the case. We recommended checking the GeotargetingWP documentation for more information:
We also pointed out that the Lite version of GeotargetingWP will not work with WPML and suggested checking the following WPML hooks for potential enhancements or integration with Geotargeting plugins:
- https://wpml.org/wpml-hook/wpml_enqueue_browser_redirect_language/
- https://wpml.org/wpml-hook/wpml_enqueued_browser_redirect_language/
