 * Hi!
 * I’m having some issues with the browsing language detect / redirect. Here is 
   the current setup:
 * – Hosting with Cloudways (DO server) + Varnish cache installed with Cloudways
   –
   WP + Polylang + Avada theme – WP Fastest Cache plugin installed
 * I’ve tried disabling all the WP Fastest cache settings and even the plugin itself–
   does not work. I used the Firefox browser and changed it’s language to Italian.
   Visited the main site but was not redirected to /it/ version of it.
 * Am I missing something? Would really love your feedback
 * Radu

 * Hello,
 * The feature requires PHP to be executed. It is not compatible with a cached homepage.
   With some cache plugins, the homepage cache is deactivated when the option to
   detect the browser preferred language is activated, but it doesn’t work with 
   all plugins and doesn’t work for external cache.

 * Hi Chouby,
 * Really appreciate the fast reply. The thing is we tried it even with WP Fastest
   Cache disabled and still no luck.
 * Any idea how we can get it sorted out? Or, what caching plugins do you know work
   with Polylang?
 * Thank you!

 * In case anyone else is in my shoes, here’s how I managed to solve the problem:
   
   1 – Disabled Redish Cache inside Cloudways platform 2 – Disabled Cloudways CDN
   3 – Tweaked WPFC to these settings – [https://prnt.sc/qvltfm](https://prnt.sc/qvltfm)
 * So far, this seems to be working.
