<p>If you can write your posts in 2 or more(Woo…) languages within one blog, you might want to tell the client browser the language attribute of you posts.</p>
<p>According to <a href="http://www.w3.org/International/tutorials/language-decl/en/all.html" title=" W3C tutorial" rel="nofollow ugc">the tutorial on W3C</a>, language attribute can be declared in the container html tag of your post like this:<br />
<div id=”post_id” class=”post_entry” lang=”zh-Hant” xml:lang=”zh-Hant” dir=”ttb”>…<br />
Here “zh-Hans” is the language attribute of your post which means it’s written in Simplified Chinese.</p>
<p>This plugin gives your post a language tag by adding a meta deta to that post.</p>
<p>To add language tag, select it from the language box when you compose/edit a post. Select “None” will delete the language tag.</p>

<h4>What is “Theme and plugin translation for Polylang”?</h4>
<p>Extension for Polylang plugin (Polylang is an extension to make multilingual WordPress websites.).<br />
Plugin is needed to translate the WordPress themes and plugins by Polylang.</p>
<h4>How to configure it?</h4>
<p>Select themes and plugins to find texts for translation by Polylang.<br />
In admin dashboard:</p>
<pre><code>Languages -> TTfP Settings
</code></pre>
<h4>How it is work?</h4>
<p>“Theme and plugin translation for Polylang” automatically searches all files of WordPress themes and plugins. It chooses from this file only those files with extensions:</p>
<ul>
<li>php</li>
<li>inc</li>
<li>twig</li>
</ul>
<p>In addition, is implemented the integration with Timber library (read more: http://timber.upstatement.com) – which allows to translate twig’s skins in simple way.<br />
Plugin in searched skins or plugins chooses texts from Polylang functions, such as:</p>
<ul>
<li>_e(string $text, string $domain = ‘default’);</li>
<li>__(string $text, string $domain = ‘default’);</li>
<li>_x(string $text, string $context, string $domain = ‘default’);</li>
<li>pll_e(string $text);</li>
<li>pll__(string $text);</li>
<li>esc_html(string $text);</li>
<li>esc_html_e(string $text, string $domain = ‘default’);</li>
<li>esc_html__(string $text, string $domain = ‘default’);</li>
<li>_n(string $single, string $plural, int $number, string $domain = ‘default’);</li>
<li>esc_attr_e(string $text, string $domain = ‘default’);</li>
<li>esc_attr__(string $text, string $domain = ‘default’);</li>
</ul>
<p>In your function.php, themes or plugins.</p>
<p>For example:</p>
<pre><code><p><?php pll_e('My text'); ?></p>

<p><?php _e('My another text', 'my_theme'); ?></p>
</code></pre>
<p>On the timber context declare this functions like:</p>
<pre><code>$context['pll_e'] = TimberHelper::function_wrapper('pll_e');

$context['pll_'] = TimberHelper::function_wrapper('pll_');
</code></pre>
<p>See more on: <code>https://polylang.wordpress.com/documentation/documentation-for-developers/functions-reference/</code><br />
These functions are defined by Polylang plugin for printing translations.<br />
Thanks “Theme and plugin translation for Polylang” you can find these strings to translate and add to Polylang register on very simple way.<br />
And then you can translate these texts from the admin dashboard.<br />
The scan result can be seen on the tab with translations:</p>
<pre><code>Settings -> Languages -> String translation
</code></pre>
<p>or</p>
<pre><code>Languages -> String translation
</code></pre>
<p>You don’t need programs like poedit – you don’t change files with extensions like: <code>.pot</code>, <code>.po</code>, <code>.mo</code>.<br />
“Theme and plugin translation for Polylang” is highly efficient because the scanner is worked only on admin dashboard in tab:<br />
In dashboard:</p>
<pre><code>Settings -> Languages -> String translation
</code></pre>
<p>or</p>
<pre><code>Languages -> String translation
</code></pre>
<h4>Export and import string translation</h4>
<p>In dashboard:</p>
<pre><code>Languages -> TTfP Settings
</code></pre>
<h4>Filter reference</h4>
<pre><code>ttfp_domains
</code></pre>
<p>Allows plugins and themes (in functions.php) to modify list of text domains (unique identifier for retrieving translated strings).<br />
List of text domains is displayed on “TTfP Settings” page to select them for translation by polylang engine.</p>
<p>Example:</p>
<pre><code>add_filter('ttfp_domains', 'custom_ttfp_domains', 10, 1);
function custom_ttfp_domains(array $domains):array
 {
     $domains[] = "my-custom-domain";
     return $domains;
 }
</code></pre>
<h4>Filter reference</h4>
<pre><code>ttfp_translation_access
</code></pre>
<p>Returns whether the user has capability to view and edit translations provided by TTfP.</p>
<p>Example:</p>
<pre><code>add_filter('ttfp_translation_access', 'custom_ttfp_translation_access', 10, 1);
function custom_ttfp_translation_access(bool $hasAccess):bool
 {
     return current_user_can('edit_posts');
 }
</code></pre>
