## Description
Adds the wpml__ and wpml_e functions to your theme and the wpml__ shortcode to your
WordPress website. Make your WordPress **full WPML ready**
```
```
Similarly to the behaviour of the __, _e functions, you must provide a string to
make translateable and a context.
That’s it; just provide translations from the
WPML > String Translations admin panel.
Check how to use the shortcode below.
#### Usage (via code)
```
```
#### Usage (via shortcode)
```
[wpml__ context=wpmlshortcodes]Title[/wpml__]
[wpml__ context=wpmlshortcodes]Subtitle[/wpml__]
```
> **NEWS! WPML Translate (+ shortcode)**
> Adds the wpml_if (ex wpml_translate) shortcode
> to your WPML suite. You can also use the wpml_e__if_language( $content, $lang )
> in your php code.
#### Usage (via code)
```
```
#### Usage (via shortcode)
```
[wpml_if lang='en']Text[/wpml_if][wpml_if lang='it']Testo[/wpml_if]
```
It also supports backward compatibility for wpml_translate and wpml_language from
WPML Translate Shortcode (deprecated plugin);
#### WPML Translate Shortcode > WPML Shortcodes
Welcome to the new WPML Shortcodes. This plugin is the new WPML Translate Shortcode,
became a full-translation suite.
Of course we still support WPML Translate Shortcode, with a new shortcode (1.2.4
+): wpml_if (see usage above).
Also, we provide full backward compatibility (yes,
you can still use wpml_translate or wpml_language shortcodes) on 1.2.6+.

Surprisingly, the plugin is still working !! And I inserted the shortcode into Revolution
Slider, and it changes the language there too.
