 * What would be the best way to translate an error message that says “You can add
   a maximum of 3 something’s to your cart. You already have 3.”?
 * One option is to change the message in the plugin core file, but that would go
   away when updating the plugin.
 * Thanks!

 * I will add a `.pot` translation file to the plugin, if that will help.
 * Or are you looking for something else? I can add an option to customize the error
   message, but that will have to wait several days for an opening in my schedule.
   That’s a good feature to add.

 * Any kind of translation option, really. A .pot file would be perfect!
 * Thanks for a quick follow-up.

 * I’m sorry for the delay. Version 1.2.0 was just released. It includes translations
   for French, Hindi, and Spanish languages, as well as a `.pot` file to make more
   translations. I hope this helps.
