 * Hi, I have an issue with 302 redirects. I have a redirect from [http://www.kungfuwestisland.com](http://www.kungfuwestisland.com)
   to [http://www.kungfuwestisland.com/en/home](http://www.kungfuwestisland.com/en/home)
   using 302.
 * I have read your previous post that advises the following:
    _**You can also avoid
   redirection by removing language code for the default language and not redirecting
   according to browser preferences (both in Polylang settings).**_
 * I have went to the setting section, when I try removing the language code, it
   does not accept saying that the language code contains wrong characters.
 * Would you kindly advise on how I can do that as it is affecting my SEO?
 * Thank you for your kind support and for the great Plugin
 * Regards,
    Sam

 * Hi!
 * You can’t remove the language code when editing the language, but there is an
   option in Polylang settings to do this. See bullet 7 in the section 3 – Polylang
   settings in [http://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/polylang/doc/polylang-getting-started.pdf](http://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/polylang/doc/polylang-getting-started.pdf)

 * Thanks Chouby for your prompt reply.
    I have done this but it broke my entire
   site. There was a loop created for redirects since I already have other redirects
   on my htaccess file.
 * RewriteRule ^en/$ [http://www.my-site.com/en/home/](http://www.my-site.com/en/home/)[
   R=301,L]
    RewriteRule ^fr/$ [http://www.my-site.com/fr/acceuil/](http://www.my-site.com/fr/acceuil/)[
   R=301,L]
 * Is there any other way I could fix this?

 * Hi
    You must remove:
 * > RewriteRule ^en/$ [http://www.my-site.com/en/home/](http://www.my-site.com/en/home/)[
   > R=301,L]
   >  RewriteRule ^fr/$ [http://www.my-site.com/fr/acceuil/](http://www.my-site.com/fr/acceuil/)[
   > R=301,L]
 * and do that thanks to the Polylang settings, see in the getting started: 7 – 
   DEFINE YOUR HOME PAGE AS A STATIC PAGE bullet 3.

 * Thank you Chouby,
 * After doing that I have noticed that I have 2 “Front Page” pages. One in English
   and One in French. I didn’t have that before changing the settings. Is this normal
   to happen?

 * Hi Chouby,
 * I have done as you advised and I am still getting a 302 redirect from .com/ to/
   en/
    Any advise regarding that? as well as the “2 Front Pages” issue mentioned
   above? Thanks
