I logged a ticket with WPML that has been escalated to their compatibility team. They advise me to mention this to you, and ask for further support.

At WPML i called the ticket “Invalid login language switching”, and it has been treated by one Shekhar Bhandari.

The issue : on http://149.210.164.31/heinpoblome/
go to another language than english;
go to the ‘my login’ page (‘mon profil’ in french or ‘mijn login’ in dutch);
login with a non-existant user;
the page will switch to the ENGLISH invalid login page;

This is when WPML diagnosed this as a compatibility issue. I will also log this ticket with Formidable, since there does not seem to be a clear ‘culprit’.

Can you help?

there seems to be another dimension to this problem, regarding language switching and widgets.

when i put the Formidable shortcode in a text box on a page, the language switching works properly; I just mean the language switching of the page that shows the login shortcode; i am not referring to what happens when logging in with a unknown user mentioned above.

when i put the shortcode into a widget on a page, the language switching does not work anymore.

sorry it took me this long
I tested with WP Twenty Fifteen, and it shows the same behaviour, namely : typing in the wrong password on a translated page, returns the english lost password dialog.

At first sight not a theme issue.

thanks, that’s all for now
