Add Polylang support for Customizer

This plugin adds Polylang support for WordPress Customizer.

Support

We provide direct support via our Frontbee Discord server

Features

  • Language switcher in Customizer.
  • Localized theme_mods and options for both default and custom made Customizer values.
  • Enable/disable forcing “The language is set from content” setting in Language->Settings->URL modifications

Prerequisite

  1. Polylang must be installed and activated.
  2. Languages must be set in Admin > Languages.
  3. If you have a static front page:
    1. Create a front page per each language.
    2. Select the front page in Admin > Settings > Reading per language.
  4. Expect customizer to use setting type = theme_mod (default) as in:

    $wp_customize->add_setting( ‘setting_id’, [ ‘type’ => ‘theme_mod’, ] );
