INTRODUCTION

The Redirect translation module, part of the Internationalization (https://www.drupal.org/project/i18n) package, improves search engine optimization (SEO) for multilingual websites.

It redirects anonymous users (including web crawlers) to the translation of the page in the requested language, if it exists, using a 301 redirect code.

REQUIREMENTS

This module requires the following modules:

• Internationalization (https://www.drupal.org/project/i18n)

The Translation redirect module requires the implementation of hook_i18n_translate_path by another module for the redirect page to be determined. Currently, the Multilingual content, Path translation, and Taxonomy translation modules implement this hook.

RECOMMENDED MODULES

• Internationalization Views (https://www.drupal.org/project/i18nviews)
• Language Icons (https://www.drupal.org/project/languageicons)
• Translation Overview (https://www.drupal.org/project/translation_overview)
• Localization Client (https://www.drupal.org/project/l10n_client)
• Internationalization contributions (https://www.drupal.org/project/i18n_contrib)

INSTALLATION

• This is a submodule of the Internationalization module. Install the Internationalization module as you would normally install a contributed Drupal module. Visit https://www.drupal.org/docs/7/extending-drupal-7/installing-contributed-modules-find-import-enable-configure-drupal-7 for further information.

CONFIGURATION

No configuration is necessary.

For node translation, enable the Multilingual content and the Translation redirect modules. For non-node pages, the redirection hook must be implemented by the relevant module.
For example, for taxonomy pages, you should enable the Taxonomy translation module because the module provides the necessary hook code. If you are using the Path translation module to create translation sets for non-node pages, then it implements the hook code for determining the redirection page.
