I should specify that the default language is set to English (and shows up as such in the Language Settings admin menu). Also, going to the plain domain “sitedomain.com” brings up the English version.
On your qTranslate-X settings page, expand the General Settings section. This will reveal Default Language / Order, which should display a list of your enabled languages. Here you can both change the order in which the languages are to be listed (by clicking the up/down arrows) and select your default language (by checking the radio button next to the language you wish to be the default).
When done, click the Save Changes button. Hope that helps. 🙂
Thanks a lot, @jjbte, for taking care of this, I think it is resolved now.
Yes, thank you @jjbte! I tried this and that and right before noticing your response I realized I wasn’t opening the plugin options.
Then, even after changing things, Chrome kept opening the English version by default. However, other browsers were following my set default (Japanese). I think Chrome was automating things with its own defaults.
God bless!
John, thank you for such a robust and useful plugin!
@rgb_life: Try deleting your cookies in Chrome. Once you visit your site in a certain language, qTrans sets a cookie in your browser for that language. Delete the cookie, and Chrome should load your Japanese site (and a new cookie will be set for Japanese).
@jjbte: I see, that’s why only Chrome does it. I set the default language URL to not display as a subdirectory (meaning it was automatically going to English but still showing the “/en”), so it was extra confusing.
Thanks for the advice!
