All things Shopify and commerce
I have a store on a single domain, with 2 markets (Belgium and The Netherlands). For each of these markets, Dutch is configured as primary/default language, and English as secondary language.
The language selector dropdown displays both language, and correctly redirects to <store URL>/en when selecting English.
The automatic redirection based on browser language does not seem to work however. The language redirect option under Market preferences is enabled, and I've confirmed my browser is configured and detected as using English (en). Still, when browsing to the store, I remain on the main URL with language set to Dutch.
Any idea what goes wrong,
Thanks!
Hey @rvdp88
Can you please share a link to your store so we can test this on our end as well?
I also recommend to ensure you are testing your site access through a private/incognito window and that you are clearing your browser cache for the website after visiting it. Your browser will save previous settings until the cache is cleared, so you won't be seeing it as a "new customer" without taking those steps. Hope that resolves the troubleshooting for you!

Hi @Shay
Thanks for getting back! Is there any way I can share the link with you privately? I prefer not to post it publicly...
I am testing via Edge InPrivate mode. Cache is not relevant in that mode as everything is kept in-memory during the session and auto-cleared when the browser window is closed.
Our community support team is not able to receive private messages, to ensure our communications and support are always available. It sounds like you have done the appropriate testing on your end and if you are still seeing this as an issue I recommend bringing this to our authenticated support team for additional help.
