@hacaro76 I don't understand the problem in the first post, could you explain?

In the given example, there are two languages: en and ja (default). If the browser doesn't detect either, the redirection will use the default. If you want to redirect to en by default, then put it as default. Otherwise, why would want to set the default to ja? 🤔
