Tell us what you are trying to do?
Translate the error messages when the login failed. The error messages are,
"This Field is required!"
"Unknown username. Check again or try your email address."
"Error: The Password you have entered is incorrect."
Is there any documentation that you are following?
No.
Is there a similar example that we can see?
Try to log in on the login form the homepage, link provided below.
This is a page describing what this login form widget does and how to use it. I am including this link to make sure you know which widget I can asking help for. Thanks.
I forgot to mention that I know how to do page translations and string translations in WPML.
My problem with the login form widget is that I can't find the above mentioned error messages in WPML's String Translations. Hence, I could not translate them.
Our site is using UAE 1.36.17, so it should be fully compatible with WPML. We shouldn't need to register the Login Form widget. In fact, some parts of the form widget is translatable. We were able to translate these words used in the widget: "Login", "username" and "password". We just couldn't find a way to translate the error messages.
I will be uploading screenshots to illustrate the issue.
As you can see, even though the page is displayed in Japanese, the three error (validation) messages in red are still in English. It is these three messages which I need to translate.
I have installed Ultimate Addons for Elementor and created a test page on the sandbox site. hidden link
This test page is using the Login Form widget from Ultimate Addons for Elementor. The same widget I am using on the site I am building.
I could re-create all three situations on the test page, as illustrated in the three screenshots I uploaded earlier taken on the site I was building.
* When either form is left blank: "This Field is required!"
* When the username is not found: "Unknown username. Check again or try your email address."
* When the password does not match the username: "Error: The Password you have entered is incorrect."
I could not find where to translate the above three validation/error messages, not in WPML's String translations, not in WPML's Page translations, not in anywhere else I could think of.
Hopefully this will help in your investigation. Thanks.
Thanks for replicating the issue. I was able to find those strings in String Translation after scanning the "Ultimate Addons for Elementor" plugin via WPML-> Theme and Plugin Localization.
Please check the test page and let me know if the strings are translated correctly.
I followed the steps on my site and I can now find the three strings in the String Translation page! I was able to pretend to translate them into French and it worked! One problem solved.
I will keep this ticket open a bit longer to see if I still have any issues related to my original question.
