Remove Default Language Name in URL Multi Language Codeigniter
#1
Bug 

I want to remove default language name from url when using multi language in code igniter. I have 3 languages : English , Italy , Arabic and English is my default language . in other word when language is set to default that “en” must remove from link. I just used this articles
and
but got so many errors
many times by clicking on the link it changes from this “domain.com/ar” to this one “domain.com/en/ar” or from this link “domain.com/en/main/contact/” after clicked it turns to “domain.com/en/main/contact/main/contact”. How can I do that? Any help will be useful Thanks in Advance.
switch link


PHP Code:
echo anchor('en''english'); 
my route:
PHP Code:
$route['^it/(.+)$'] = "$1";
$route['^en/(.+)$'] = "$1";
$route['^ar/(.+)$'] = "$1";
// '/en' and '/ar' -> use default controller
$route['^(en|it|ar|fa)$'] = $route['default_controller'];
$route['^(en|ar|it)/main/contact'] = "main/contact"

PHP Code:
        $lang$this->input->cookie('test_lang');
        if(isset($lang)){
            $this->config->set_item('language'$lang);
            $this->lang->load('site'$lang);
        }else{
            $this->PageModel->_set_cookie('test_lang''english');
            $this->config->set_item('language''english');  
            
//default codeigniter language for forms message etc, system/language etc
            $this->lang->load('site''english');
        
i use cookies to save the language and the code above on __contrust function
