Add Polylang support for Customizer

This plugin adds Polylang support for WordPress Customizer.

Support

We provide direct support via our Frontbee Discord server

Features

• Language switcher in Customizer.
• Localized theme_mods and options for both default and custom made Customizer values.
• Enable/disable forcing “The language is set from content” setting in Language->Settings->URL modifications

Prerequisite

1. Polylang must be installed and activated.
2. Languages must be set in Admin > Languages.
3. If you have a static front page:
   1. Create a front page per each language.
   2. Select the front page in Admin > Settings > Reading per language.

4. Expect customizer to use setting type = theme_mod (default) as in:

   $wp_customize->add_setting( ‘setting_id’, [ ‘type’ => ‘theme_mod’, ] );
