Hi Alex,

Try using the PHP session method in the example page: https://docs.grabaperch.com/perch/building/how-do-i-create-a-multilingual-site/

I think it guards against any old query string being created and triggering new regions.

e.g.:

<?php
    session_start();
    $lang = 'en'; // default lang
    switch(perch_get('lang')) {
        case 'en':
            $lang = 'en';
            break;
        case 'es':
            $lang = 'es';
            break;
        // add more cases for language options here...

        default:
            if (isset($_SESSION['lang'])) {
                $lang = $_SESSION['lang'];
            }
            break;
    }
    $_SESSION['lang'] = $lang;
    ?>
