 * I have a website in Dutch and I would like to translate the (error) messages.
   Is that possible without editing the core files?
    (And if not, what file(s) do
   I need to look at?)

 * Currently, it is not possible without editing the Wordfence files, and of course,
   the edits would be lost when updating to a new version. But we do have a feature
   request open to allow editing of the lockout messages users see, and the email
   alerts. Are those the parts you are looking to translate, or would it be the 
   whole plugin?

 * Nonono, just the emails and the notifications, so it seems that will be covered
   in the future. Cool! Thanks.

 * Here is an example that works to me with qTranslate-X:
    In /plugins/wordfenece/
   lib/wordfenceClass.php (line 1084)change the error message with something similar
   to this: `[:es]<strong>ERROR</strong>: El usuario o la contraseña introducidos
   no son correctos. <a href="%2$s" title="Recuperar Contraseña">No recuerdas tu
   Contraseña</a>?[:en]<strong>ERROR</strong>: The username or password you entered
   is incorrect. <a href="%2$s" title="Password Lost and Found">Lost your password
   </a>?[:fr]<strong>ERREUR</strong>: Le nom d'utilisateur ou le mot de passe ne
   sont pas corrects. <a href="%2$s" title="Récupérer le mot de passe">Mot de passe
   oublié</a>?[:]` This example is for spanish, english and french. Remenber to 
   save a copy of this file in other directory to copy it again after an update.
   Hope this helps someone.
