Whenever you want to change a text or system message, you will need to customize the form’s translations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start, from the Form Editor<\/b> click on the Set up <\/b>tab from the top navigation bar and then select the Language<\/b> icon from the side menu. Here you can add new languages to your form and customize them. Hover over the desired language to select the Customize<\/b> (pencil) icon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This will open the customization lightbox pictured below, where you can add the translations. On the left side, you’ll notice all the form fields that you’ve created and all the system messages that form users may see while filling out and sending the form. Add the translations in the text boxes on the right side. Once you’ve finished adding the desired text, press Save<\/b>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The formatting changes applied to form fields in the editor – such as text color and font size – are reflected in the customization lightbox as well. The inline editing menu from the editor is also available in the right-side column for you to customize the translated text, ensuring it matches the original formatting seamlessly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n Inline editing is available for all new forms and forms duplicated starting from November 11, 2024<\/b>. Forms created before this date will keep the original side-panel menu for editing field labels and instructions and formatting is not available in the Language customization lightbox.<\/span>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n

The following actions are available in this order: Make default<\/b>, Customize<\/b>, or Remove<\/b>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
