 * Hi Support-Team and other experts,
 * I maintain the website [https://pushbikegirl.com/](https://pushbikegirl.com/)
   for my friend Heike. We just moved from WPML to Polylang. I activated “detect
   browser language” which works fine on the homepage.
 * The page [https://pushbikegirl.com/linktree](https://pushbikegirl.com/) should
   show the language that is used in the browser too, but it does not.
   On an English
   browser it should redirect to [https://pushbikegirl.com/en/linktree-en/](https://pushbikegirl.com/en/linktree-en/)
 * I tested on a smartphone run on English in incognito mode.
 * Thank you for your help
   Stefan

   to see the link]_

 * Hello,
 * This is the expected behavior. It only works on Homepage.
   If your visitor clicks
   on an English link on a third party website or in the SERP, then we think, this
   is not the Polylang job to choose the language of the target page.Note if a page
   in the preferred language exists, then the visitor will be able to switch to 
   it thanks to the language switcher.More info at [https://polylang.pro/documentation/support/guides/detect-the-browser-preferred-language/](https://polylang.pro/documentation/support/guides/detect-the-browser-preferred-language/)

 * Thank you very much for clearifying, Sebastien.
 * In some cases it might be better to automatically redirect the language if the
   page titles are the same.
 * Best regards
   Stefan
