nikolaosM	Background of the issue: I want to redirect a user to the translation based on a cookie value. I have added a plugin that allows users to select their shipping country. After the user selects the country, the page reloads. I want the page to open the English translation upon reload. The cookie will be stored for some time, and the user should be redirected while it is active. I opened a chat earlier but cannot find what your colleague answered. Symptoms: I am unable to find the previous chat response regarding redirecting users based on a cookie value. Questions: How can I redirect a user to the English translation based on a cookie value? What steps should I follow to implement this redirection using WPML?
