WordPress: Change language of the splash screen

Question

I am using WPML and WP-maintenance-mode plugin on my site. This site supports dutch and english language with /en and /de in url as below.

mysite.com/blog/de/blabla
mysite.com/blog/en/blabla

When I put the site into maintenance mode, the maintenance mode screen with /en shows a message in English like:

Sorry for the inconvenience.
Our website is currently undergoing scheduled maintenance.

I want to display same message in Dutch when the site is accessed with /de.

But I am not sure how to configure this settings in WPML or Maintenance Mode plugin.

Please suggest

Thanks

If you have the WPML String Translation plugin (need license for it), you can locate those strings and translate them, with approximate steps like this:

• In your dashboard, go to WPML > Theme and plugins localization
• Select 'WP Maintenance Mode' in the plugin list and click on 'Scan selected plugins for strings'
• Go to WPML > String Translation and click on 'Translate texts in admin screens' at the bottom of the page
• Search for wpmm_settings
• Select the strings that you want to translate and click on 'Add to String translation' at the bottom
• Go to WPML > String Translation, search for wpmm_settings and add a translation for each string.
