Re: Django i18n_patterns default language

You can add a middleware to ignore the header:

class IgnoreLanguageHeaderLocaleMiddleware(LocaleMiddleware):

    LANGUAGE_HEADER = 'HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE'

    def process_request(self, request):
        if self.LANGUAGE_HEADER in request.META:
            del request.META[self.LANGUAGE_HEADER]

        super(IgnoreLanguageHeaderLocaleMiddleware, self).process_request(request)

Is there any solution to add language prefix to the URL from the settings.LANGUAGE_CODE which is my preferred language. Instead from   "Accept-Language" header. I do not want to use the browser language.

A web browser has language preference setting. When a request made to your Django server,  your browser reads its language preferences and it put it in the request "Accept-Language" header.
Django will check if the request URL has language prefix in it. If it doesn't it will add language prefix to the same URL and make web browser to redirect to that new URL.

You can see the flow using web browser developer tool.

I am using i18n_patterns to change the language prefix in url. It s working fine ones the language cookie is set. The problem is that it's adding /en/ when I trying to access a page without the language code in private window, even though my preferred language is not en (the default one set in settings.LANGUAGE_CODE). The Django documentation says that how django discovers language prefference:

Django documentation says it will use the following to choose the language:

First, it looks for the language prefix in the requested URL.Failing that, it looks for the LANGUAGE_SESSION_KEY key in the current user's session.Failing that, it looks for a cookie. The name of the cookie used is set by the LANGUAGE_COOKIE_NAME setting. (The default name is django_language.) Failing that, it looks at the Accept-Language HTTP header. This header is sent by your browser and tells the server which language(s) you prefer, in order by priority. Django tries each language in the header until it finds one with available translations. Failing that, it uses the global LANGUAGE_CODE setting.

So the reason why I get /en/ prefix in my url, when there is no any cookie set is because of the Accept-Language HTTP header. How can i solve that if somebody visits my site for the first time when there is no cookie, the i18n to go to the final step to get the language from the global LANGUAGE_CODE?
