 * Hello,
 * I’m using polylang as my translation plugin and WPForms lite. All is updated 
   to the latest version.
 * I wanted to translate form fields and messages however, in polylang string translation
   the WPForms translation does not exist. As a workaround i created 2 forms each
   depending on the language but i’m left with the error messages translation.
 * Can you please advise how to do so?
 * Thanks.
 * Regards,

 * Hi salamsd,
 * The validation messages are handled on-the-fly with javascript, so the process
   to translate them is different than for the other text in WPForms Lite.
 * We have a technical doc on [how to translate the validation messages](https://developers.wpforms.com/docs/change-validation-messages-for-wpml-languages/)
   into multiple languages, using WPML as an example. For other translation plugins,
   you might want to reach out to the translation plugin’s support for more information
   on how to do this.
 * Thanks 🙂
