 Description   

Steps to reproduce

  1. Google: Magnolia cms ecommerce
  2. Arrived on the EN version https://www.magnolia-cms.com/product/solutions/ecommerce.html
  3. Switched to the DE version with the language switcher icon
    https://www.magnolia-cms.com/de_DE/product/solutions/ecommerce/abTestVariants/variant-B.html

.. Also please see the Loom recording. I was able to replicate it after a few attempts. About 1m45s into the recording https://www.loom.com/share/aeb9e7b1d8f24956b013009d3ecc6cf3 

Expected results

AB Variants shouldn't be exposed to users in the URL (unless they have a direct link)

Actual results

Without having a direct link, at times, it happens that when you switch languages, the /variant is exposed in URL.

Hi ldelnevo 

FYI: I was kindly asked to report to you that the same issue happened to me today, following a slightly different path: 

  1. Opened magnolia-cms.com/de_DE (via URL, no campaign link) 
  2. Navigation path: Produkt > Features > E-Commerce 
  3. Then changed to ENG page 

Here's the link: https://www.magnolia-cms.com/product/solutions/ecommerce/abTestVariants/variant-B.html
