Site always shows English language independent of browser settings/weights

[tht]

Expected Behavior

When configuring mutliple languages with weights I expect to see the the language with the lowest weight when opening the webpage for the first time.

Configuration is as follows:

languageCode: de

# Manage languages
# For any more details, you can check the official documentation: https://gohugo.io/content-management/multilingual/
languages:
  de:
    languageName: Deutsch
    weight: 1
  en:
    languageName: English
    weight: 3

# Force a locale to be use, really useful to develop the application ! Should be commented in production, the "weight" should rocks.
#DefaultContentLanguage: de

I've also tested languageCode: de-ch. Same effect.

The only way to make sure the page opens in German is to use DefaultContentLanguage which triggers the issue #916.

Current Behavior

When visiting the site I always see the english language. Also english is deployed to the site root, additional languages are deployed to a sub-directory.

Possible Solution

Browsers Affected

• [x] Chrome

Detailed Description

English seems to be hardcoded as default language on the root dir. Maybe slightly related to #916.

The issue should be fixed now. Please, try pulling the latest change. Specify defaultContentLanguage to your default language.
