Pick the first entry from supportedLngs if the browser does not detect any language from supportedLngs array. #292

I got the following init configuration:

  i18n.use(LanguageDetector)
  .use(initReactI18next)
  .use(txBackend)
  .init({
    returnNull: false,
    fallbackLng: "en",
    supportedLngs: ["sk", "uk"],
    defaultNS: "common",
    interpolation: {
      escapeValue: false,
    },
    react: {
      transSupportBasicHtmlNodes: true,
    },
  });

I have suppotedLngs sk and uk, but i18next-browser-languageDetector does not even detects those langages from my browser, which is completly reasonable and my translation break.

Should the plugin not pick some language from the supportedLngs? If no match detected just pick the first one from supported array.

Sorry, but I don't understand your issue. Can you please provide a minimal reproducible example repository that shows your issue and explain with more details what you mean? btw: you've set fallbackLng to "en" but "en" is not included in the supportedLngs array

I was too quick with opening this issue, but this might help someone else.

Pay attention to set the fallbackLng to a language supported in the supportedLngs array

Thank you for your answer!
