 * Hi,
 * I have a website with 2 languages, the default [http://www.domain.nl](http://www.domain.nl)
   being in Dutch and [http://www.domain.nl/en](http://www.domain.nl/en) for English.
 * Every time I visit the site I get redirected to [http://www.domain.nl/en](http://www.domain.nl/en),
   even though I disabled the option “Detect browser language and redirect”.
 * My operating system and internet browser is in English, but I only want visitors
   to visit the English website when they choose to by clicking the GB flag, not
   automatically. How do I do this, because as I said the option “Detect browser
   language and redirect” is already disabled?
 * Thanks!

 * Deleting the qtrans_front_language cookie seems to have fixed it. It did change
   to “nl” after clicking the NL flag but still showed me the English version when
   I visited the site the next time. Deleting the cookie somehow made it remember
   the nl option.

 * delete cache and cookies to access clean your site as visitors who visit for 
   the first time your site.

 * Thanks, deleting the cookie fixed it. But why did it still redirect me to the
   English site my next visits after the cookie was set to NL by clicking the NL
   flag?

 * This should not happen if the cookie is stored.
    Settings – Languages – Advanced–
   Cookie Settings = unchecked?
 * Can you give me a link to your site?

 * Yes that checkbox is unchecked. The website is unity.nl. I thought clearing the
   cookie fixed it but it still redirects me to /en.

 * qtrans_front_language cookie is not stored here, so every time I come to the 
   Dutch version.
 * Clicking EN goes to the English version clicking NL to Dutch version – all of
   this works.
 * There must be something happening in your site that the cookie is not stored.

 * Detect the language of the browser and redirect accordingly. = Unchecked?

 * Yes unchecked. Thanks for helping. The qtrans_front_language cookie is getting
   stored here, and the last few minutes it has been working correctly, but it’s
   really random.

 * Tried that, but it didn’t change anything. If I use Chrome the qtrans cookie 
   gets stored, but when I use Safari it doesn’t. But our own partypanel cookie (
   the modal window) works in both browsers.
