Shortcodes for translation in-place

No, there is nothing like this because it is not working with the concept of Polylang.

I’ve go a theme that does not “export” all the strings one can enter properly. It happens mainly in lists on the frontpage. I understand that a shortcode isn’t the clean solution and string literals will be on many places. Polylang doesn’t offer anything for such a case, correctly?

I’ve found a shortcode that would do the thing I am asking. Colinschwebke has it on Github:

// [polylang lang="en"]English[/polylang][polylang lang="de"]Deutsch[/polylang]
//Add this code in your functions.php
function polylang_shortcode($atts, $content = null)
{
  if (empty($content))
    return '';
  extract( shortcode_atts( array('lang' => ''), $atts ) );
  if (empty($lang))
    return "### You must specify 'lang' using shortcode: polylang";
  return ($lang == pll_current_language()) ? $content : '';
}
add_shortcode('polylang', 'polylang_shortcode');
