How do I translate error messages(login)?

  • I want to translate the following message(login err):

    ERROR: The username or password you entered is incorrect. Lost your password?

    I am using Loco Translator, and I can not find this message anywhere.

    How do I translate this message?
    Please let us know how to apply the filter or the location where the message is written.

    thanks.

  • Hi,
    you can do that using login_errors filter hook and here is how:

    add_filter('login_errors','login_error_message');

function login_error_message($error){
    //check if that's the error you are looking for
    $pos = strpos($error, 'incorrect');
    if (is_int($pos)) {
        //its the right error so you can overwrite it
        $error = "Wrong information";
    }
    return $error;
}

    OR by Plugin
