How to set default locals

[asifdastagir-ovrlod]

Hi,

I want to set the default language as Arabic as I can. When I hit http://localhost:3000/ the URL redirects the English version.

@PaulBratslavsky Thanks for your reply, I hope you will find out about this. Basically, I am developing the client website on your prebuilt structure the default language is Arabic. I had to find out how the default locale is Arabic. Please help me sort out this issue...

@asifdastagir-ovrlod just change defaultLocale value in i18n config in i18n-config.ts

@colonder I changed but the app not getting the default locale, The defaultLocale is working only in blog page.

@asifdastagir-ovrlod I haven't found the issue yet, but when getting pages we are calling this function https://github.com/strapi/nextjs-corporate-starter/blob/main/frontend/src/app/%5Blang%5D/utils/get-page-by-slug.ts

import {fetchAPI} from "@/app/[lang]/utils/fetch-api";

export async function getPageBySlug(slug: string, lang: string) {
    const token = process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_STRAPI_API_TOKEN;

    const path = `/pages`;
    const urlParamsObject = {filters: {slug}, locale: lang};
    const options = {headers: {Authorization: `Bearer ${token}`}};
    return await fetchAPI(path, urlParamsObject, options);
}

I wonder if you console log the locale you are requesting here what does it show. Maybe it is not getting the right locale to pass in the GET request.
