How to force redirection from a language to another

[williambesson]

Hello,

I am building a shop in both French (default) and English.

The english version is not completely ready so I would like to implement a redirection from the English version to the French version. (even better if possible that any language browser ends up on the French version.)

 

How can I do that?

 

I have found this somewhere but it didn't really work out:

 

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule ^fr/(.*)$ /da/$1 [L,NC,NE,R=301]

 

Any other idea?

 

Many thanks for your time on this.

 

Best regards.

 

Guillaume

Hi, why don't you disable the other languages in admin until you finish to translate them, french language will be the default one?

Hi fred-vinapresta,

 

Thanks a lot for the fast reply. I tried this but unfortunately I have a lot of hard coded links with the language code in them so if I disable the additional language in the back office a lot of my links will fall apart for the default version.

 

Any other idea?

 

Thanks a lot.
