The add-on helps to identify a comfortable language of the store for user regardless of the language of their browser. The add-on redirects a user to the preferred language version of the store according to the user's country or take other actions to select the language of the store.

The add-on allows you to configure four options for working with the preferred language of the site for users from a specific country when the user first logs in:

1. Redirect - a user will be redirected to the language version of the page specified in the settings for this country without any notification.
2. Redirect and notify - a user will be redirected to the language version of the page specified in the settings for this country, showing an informational notification and providing a link, by clicking on which you will stay on the language version of the site from which you came to the site by default.
3. Redirect and display a language selection window - a userwill be redirected to the language version of the page specified in the settings for this country, showing a pop-up window with an interface for selecting another language from the list available on the site.
4. Display language selection window - the selection interface will be shown without redirecting the user.

You can also configure the display of the language version selection interface with or without country flags.

We recommend to note general restrictions:

1. All solutions from AlexBranding developers team require pre-installation of the AB: Addons Manager service addon. It is delivered free of charge and is responsible for such services: installation, upgrades, license verifications. Excluding this service addon usage is not possible;
2. Addon files may have a closed (encoded) part, in which only a license check is located;
3. The addon will work only on those domains, that are specified in the user's license. If you try to use the solution on CS-Cart installations, whose domains are not included in the license, the addon will be automatically turned off;
4. Local installation is not possible, so that the addon works on the additional domain (subdomain), enter this domain (subdomain) in the Domain field, when ordering (or write to info@alexbranding.com) - adding technical domains for the developing or for testing is always free.

After your order has been processed by our manager, it will be transferred to Completed state, you will receive an email to your mailbox with ordered add-ons license numbers (usually it takes from 15 minutes to 8 hours depending on the day time and week day).
