Getting string translation on custom language

    Hello,

    I wish my WP to automatically send an email in different languages, depending on some program condition.

    I have a pll_register_string() for an email text, and this text is translated. But pll__() always returns an email text in WP’s native language, and I’m failing to see where can I use this program condition of mine.

    Is it possible to do something like this:

    $translation = pll__($my_string, 'en'); // get english translation
$translation = pll__($my_string, 'fr'); // get french translation

    I have a latest Polylang and WP.
    Permalinks structure is /%postname%/
    Homepage is static.

    Hi!

    Yes. By default only one language is loaded by WordPress (and Polylang does not load other for performance reasons).

    You can inspire yourself from this to get translated strings registered with pll_register_string:

    global $polylang;

foreach ($polylang->model->get_languages_list() as $language) {
	$mo = new PLL_MO();
	$mo->import_from_db($language);
	$translation = $mo->translate($my_string);
	...
}
