Change “Press to select” text on select elements

Hi @alecss,

You should be able to translate those text using translation plugins such as LocoTranslate. I’d recommend checking out our tutorial: https://wpforms.com/docs/how-to-translate-wpforms-into-a-different-language/. That should hopefully share all of the details you’d need to get up and running with a new language in your forms.

I hope this helps!

Hello @alecss,

Please try adding this code on your site:

// Translate Strings
add_filter( 'gettext', 'translate_wpforms_strings', 20, 3 );

function translate_wpforms_strings( $translated_text, $text, $domain ) {
    switch ( $translated_text ) {
        case 'Press to select.' :
            $translated_text = __( 'Your Press to select translation.', 'wpforms-lite' );
            break;
    }
    
    return $translated_text;
}

In case it helps, here’s our tutorial with the most common ways to add custom code like this.

For the most beginner-friendly option in that tutorial, I’d recommend using the Code Snippets plugin.

I hope this helps!
