 * Hi Chouby
 * Is there possible, as a feature in future version of Polylang, to add the possibility
   of adding and removing custom translated strings, directly in the Polylang admin
   interface (maybe in the String translation tab under de default registered strings)?
 * Thank you.

 * I don’t understand what you mean. Could you precise what is your goal?

 * Thanks for the quick response. Many people (including me) asked how to translate
   that or that. One solution you pointed out is another tiny plugin that calls 
   the pll_register_string function.
 * Why not let the user in the admin interface to “+” (add) or “-” (remove), some(
   input1, input2) and call the pll_register_string(input1, input2) when all is 
   saved; and then showing the newly added string in the string translation tab 
   with all the inputs for each available language and a “-” (remove) button.

 * I understand what you mean now. Unfortunately I don’t know how to reach this 
   result.
 * To write the tiny plugin you are referring to (or a wpml-config.xml which can
   do the same), I need to know the internal name (in php code) of the strings to
   translate. That’s why I can help only when being able to access the source code
   of the theme or plugin. Without these informations (and I have no idea on how
   to get them automatically), I can do nothing.
