Dear Nicola,

For the cancel link, you can customize the text and message with shortcode attribute: "label" and "message", for example:

[cred-form-cancel field='cancel' label='my cacel link text' message="my message!"]

For the role cred-relationship-role shortcode, you can translate the texts with WP gettext filter hook, for example, add below codes into your theme file "functions.php":

add_filter( 'gettext', function( $translated_text, $text, $domain ) {
    if($text == 'Search for a post' && $domain == 'wp-cred'){
      $translated_text = "Custom text here";
    }
    return $translated_text;
}, 20, 3 );

Hi Luo,
Cancel works perfectly thanks. The second filter works too but there are two texts to be translated, one before the dropdown opens and the other one when it's opened. I modified your filter to accomodate both labels,

add_filter( 'gettext', function( $translated_text, $text, $domain ) {
    if($text == 'Search for a post' && $domain == 'wp-cred'){
      $translated_text = "Seleziona";
    }
	if($text == 'Please enter 3 or more characters' && $domain == 'wp-cred'){
      $translated_text = "Digita almeno 3 caratteri";
    }
    return $translated_text;
}, 20, 3 );

the first one is translated, the second doesn't ! Should I create a separate filter for that ?
thanks
Regards
Nicola

Please try to modify you PHP codes as below, and test again:

add_filter( 'gettext', function( $translated_text, $text, $domain ) {
    if($text == 'Search for a post' && $domain == 'wp-cred'){
      $translated_text = "Seleziona";
    }
    if($text == 'Please enter %NUM% or more characters' && $domain == 'wpv-views'){
      $translated_text = "Digita almeno %NUM% caratteri";
    }
    return $translated_text;
}, 20, 3 );
