    Hi, I have a major language version of wordpress instalation in “domain.com/” url, and the other ones in folders /en/ /de/ etc. Redirect to /en/ /de/ directories works perfect. I wonder if there is any rule i can add to plugin to don’t redirect anywhere, or redirect to home “/” if language of browser is correct to main wordpress instalation language. For sure i will add plugin only to the main version of page.

    Sorry, but that’s not supported.

    The following problem exists in your case: If the user switches the language manually from German (/de/) to English (/) the user don’t want to be redirected to the German site again. So the plugins needed additional information when which site has been visited to decide when a redirect makes sense and when not.

    The plugin concept is simple, but very clear. The root site (/) always redirects, language specific sites (/en/ and /de/) don’t redirect. No additional information is necessary.
