# Redirect visitors who request the root domain path (e.g. www.mywebsite.ch) to the appropriate language version | |
# Fallback to English version if no matching browser language defined | |
# Based on language version being at e.g. www.mywebsite.ch/de/ | |
# This has no effect on any subpaths of the website, and therefore has no effect on e.g. WordPress admin. | |
# Using a 302 temporary redirect header stops the redirection from being cached in the browser. | |
# language is ES-MX (Mexico) | |
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Accept-Language} ^es-mx [NC] | |
RewriteRule ^$ /mx/ [L,R=302] | |
# language is ES-ES (Spain) | |
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Accept-Language} ^es-es [NC] | |
RewriteRule ^$ /es/ [L,R=302] | |
# language starts with DE | |
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Accept-Language} ^de [NC] | |
RewriteRule ^$ /de/ [L,R=302] | |
# language starts with FR | |
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Accept-Language} ^fr [NC] | |
RewriteRule ^$ /fr/ [L,R=302] | |
# language starts with IT | |
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Accept-Language} ^it [NC] | |
RewriteRule ^$ /it/ [L,R=302] | |
# else redirect to the English version | |
RewriteRule ^$ /en/ [L,R=302] |
