Dear Sir/Madam,

I want to translate all toolset form messages but I don't want to do that one by one, I don't expect to do it by Translation plugins lik WPML as my site is non-English website. How can I do it once and apply to all forms? It is fine to do it with custom code.

Best regards,

Kelvin,.

Hi Kelvin,

Thank you for contacting us and I'd be happy to assist.

To translate/customize the form messages for all forms, you can use the filter 'cred_translate_action_message'.

For example:

function custom_callback_form_messages( $string ) {
    switch ( $string ) {
        case 'Post Saved' :
            $string = 'New message for Post Saved';
        break;
        case 'The post was not saved because of the following problem:' :
            $string = 'New message for The post was not saved because of the following problem:';
        break;
        
    }
    return $string;
}
add_filter( 'cred_translate_action_message', 'custom_callback_form_messages' );

The above code snippet can be included through either Toolset's custom code feature ( ref: https://toolset.com/documentation/adding-custom-code/using-toolset-to-add-custom-code/ ) or through the active theme's "functions.php" file.

In this example snippet, I've translated/customized the first two form messages and you can add more cases for the rest of the form messages, the same way.
