 * Hello,
 * Thanks for your excellent plugin ! I have a problem, though. I would like to 
   display FRENCH posts on an ENGLISH page. I use the Polylang extension.
 * On their documentation, i saw this : [https://polylang.pro/doc/developpers-how-to/#query](https://polylang.pro/doc/developpers-how-to/#query)
 * Is there a way to do this?
 * Best regards

 * While Display Posts Shortcode does not have support for this out of the box, 
   you can add new query arguments fairly easily.
 * Here’s an article that describes it in detail: [https://www.billerickson.net/shortcut-args-for-display-posts-shortcode/](https://www.billerickson.net/shortcut-args-for-display-posts-shortcode/)
 * For your specific need, this should work: [https://www.billerickson.net/code/polylang-support-for-display-posts-shortcode/](https://www.billerickson.net/code/polylang-support-for-display-posts-shortcode/)

 * Wow! It’s perfect ! Thank you very much.
 * I followed your Polylang support link ([https://www.billerickson.net/code/polylang-support-for-display-posts-shortcode/](https://www.billerickson.net/code/polylang-support-for-display-posts-shortcode/)),
   and added the code to the “function.php” file on my child theme. The ability 
   to use the shortcode [display-posts lang = “fr”] on my pages is exactly what 
   I was looking for.
 * Thanks again !
 * Best regards,
