I have this:
http://example.com/EN/index.php – english version
http://example.com/PT/index.php – portuguese version
What I want: http://example.com/ to be taken to the portuguse page by default.
I’ve also been thinking on having the portuguese page on the root and english in the EN/ directory. is this better for SEO?
iam not sure if i understand the problem, but you can create an index.php in your
root and change the header to forward the user to the PT/index.php
Header("Location: ./PT/index.php");
later you can construct an if/else check to verify the language of the browser etc..
