Hi,I need my form to work in 2 languages.
Is there a way to define the description name of each field (example 'name', 'surname', 'question') in the language files?
thanks!

Hello,

this feature is not yet present. The only way to do that is to create 2 different forms with the same fields and use their different links for each of the languages. I will move your post to the suggestion box list, and will consider it for sure for the next release.

I have the same multi-lingual requirement and here's what I've been doing ... which displays both languages at the same time. Not the prettiest way but it works.

1.) Make the field descriptors multi-ligual to look like this . 2.) Then for the description text on the right side, Enter the first language text and then use (2)HTML line feed codes of \"<br>\" at the end of the text and then enter the second language text. This seperates the 2 paragraphs of differing language text for the field. You have to play with the line feeds but it ends up looking ok. I add a final linefeed (or two) after the end second language text to seperate the text of the next form field or it ends up appearing right on top of the follwing field's description information. Good enough for a basic form ... in my opinion. Might get messy if you have lots of fields, but mine only traps 4 fields. Wayne[Email / Word for email in language#2].
