Wrong language when resetting password

[vasikgreif]

When using WPML (or other multilanguage plugin) along with multisite, the reset password email comes in wrong language, as the reset password form is sent to network_site_url() instead of site_url(). I think a proper way should be:

<form name="lostpasswordform" id="lostpasswordform" action="<?php echo esc_url( site_url( 'wp-login.php?action=lostpassword', 'login_post' ) ); ?>" method="post">

Hello @vasikgreif, welcome to our Trac!

Thanks for your report, we're already tracking this issue in #21352.

I think this issue can be addressed separately from #21352, which is focused on the URL used for the password reset, and keep this ticket focused on the language used in the email.

I believe this can be fixed along with the work on #43700 which enables users to switch language on the login screens.

In this update I changed the login URL to fix reset password email comes in wrong language.

Trac ticket: #36439

Patch/PR here looks more related to #21352 so should probably be moved over there. As for the language of the email itself issue, I'm going to punt from 5.6 seeing as #43700 isn't milestoned in and we're into beta now. If somebody wants to pick this up, we can always reconsider.
