Placeholder Contact Form 7 dropdown

Where can we see the website in question?

The website is still under construction but you can find a screenshot below.

OK. I’ll wait for the site to be published.

Use this function

function my_wpcf7_form_elements($html) {
    //wp_send_json($html );
    $text = 'your text here';
    $html = str_replace('Please choose an option',  $text, $html);

    return $html;
}
add_filter('wpcf7_form_elements', 'my_wpcf7_form_elements');

I can confirm that this is a problem.

I inserted some debug traces and found that the function wpcf7_switch_locale in includes/I10n.php is indeed called, and $locale as well as $previous_locale are correct and the translation with a French translation exists at the correct location. My suspicion is that the function is called too late, after the drop-down has already been created.

I use the workaround suggested by @mfwebdesigner (which works) but of course it would be better to have a clean solution that uses the translation files
