Questions about M2 Geo IP extension: Redirect Scope and Function

Created by Robin Hoang, Modified on Mon, 25 Dec 2017 at 04:47 PM by Nicole Le

Question:

I have few questions about the M2 GeoIP extension:


1. Can your extension redirect first time visitor to proper store? for example: we have 3 stores (uk,us,eu), if someone from us comes in, he should be redirected to domain.com/us and so on.


2. If visitor comes from google results with this url: www.domain.com/product-url and he is from uk, will system should redirect him to www.domain.com/uk/product-url and so on?


3. Is it possible to pre-select detected country on cart estimate block?


4. I saw on the backend demo you can set the scope of the redirect to global/website/store. My requirements are that the store switcher redirects based on website. We have a Canadian and US website. If the Geo IP  detected is Canada, the customer is sent to the Canadian website otherwise they are sent to the US website?
