The Preserve Path feature redirects visitors from the specific page URL to the exact same page URL (if available) on the other store.

Let’s understand the functionality with an example: 

We have 2 Prdouct URLs – 

US Store Product – abc.com/products/shirt
Germany Store Product – xyz.com/products/shirt

A visitor lands on abc.com/products/shirt and selects the xyz.com in the switcher, the visitor will be redirected to xyz.com/products/shirt URL (if available). 

Note: In case the same page URL is not present on the destination (Germany store) then it will show a 404 error.
