It is a rather easy task to extend the song importers to make use of additional features of OpenLyrics. The more complicated topic is to make OpenLP able to use this features. Therefore you have to be able to edit languages and render them. The biggest part of the suggested architecture is required for translations. Some parts increase rendering options and the small rest are abstractions which are making it possible to reuse the architecture for parts and transliterations. Currently the songs plugin only hands over the text and the footer strings. With translations you want to hand over different highlighted text. Two options: - You could use html tags, but OpenLP would not be provide intelligent slide breaks and alternating languages are the only possible layout. - Extend the themes for additional text classes. As long you want predictable rendering, you have to make extensions to the themes. Using html tags could serve as proof-of-concept in a intermediate step.
