ChronoForms v6 multilanguage translation

translate form labels in ChronoForms v6.

Overview

The labels display the placeholder text instead of the translated string because the locale syntax is not used correctly.
Use the {l:PLACEHOLDER} syntax for all labels in the form builder, then ensure the translations are defined in the Locales tab.

Hello! I can't find a way to use multilanguage in CF V6.
I've set up my fields with label "NAME_LABEL" and the in the Locales tab i've added all the tags with NAME_LABEL=Name and so on... but in the live website I get the label "NAME_LABEL".. do I have to activate multilanguage somewhere?
Thank you!
Gianluca

EDIT:

this is my locale tab:

and this is my field:

ChronoForms v6 multilanguage translation image 2

this is the result:

ChronoForms v6 multilanguage translation image 3

Thank you for your help!

Hi jabba,

When you call a locale string you need to use this syntax: {l:string}, so you need to call here {l:NAME_LABEL}

I have similar issue, but with another result. (note: work with CFV6 on WordPress)
step 1: I created 2 Locales option (en_GB and it_IT) with all the field label translation (AZIENDA=Azienda on it_IT and AZIENDA=Company on en_GB)
step2: I write the label name like {l:AZIENDA}
The result is a label name AZIENDA in all language, and not the right translation.

Same problem of fastmax for me! Only on Wordpress.

I used a backup of multilanguage working form from Joomla and I restored it on Wordpress Chronoform version 6.0.19.

All translations are gone!
