 * Hello,
 * For my next project, I would like to have the authenticatd users get the ability
   to switch only the admin language (betwenn french and english for the moment).
   Polylang do this by default by adding a select dropdown menu in their profile.
   I don’t know if it is a good idea to inatall polylang only for admin language
   switching purposes, but this is the way I would like this feature to add…
 * Thanks in advance.

 * OK, I found a Plugin to do this: [English WordPress Admin](https://wordpress.org/support/view/plugin-reviews/english-wp-admin?filter=5).
   
   Lightweight and efficient (takes also in account custom post types). Only switches
   between native language (for me fr) and english.
