Ionut	A bit more context: If i edit `wp-content/plugins/wpml-ninja-forms/wpml-forms-config.xml` and add my own stuff, it works [code] <forms> <form name="ninja-forms"> <property type="ARRAY" properties="f_label">my-custom-field</property> [/code] But this is not very future proof.

Ionut	@Shekhar Bhandari: `wpml-forms-config` is not loaded automatically, it's only loaded by the nf wpml plugin: $config_helper->getXmlArray( dirname( $this->pluginFilePath ) . 'https://cdn.wpml.org/wpml-forms-config.xml' ); There is no logic within code that will load the file when stored in a different place
