Hi, I've a bilingual site (Dutch and English). I use Chronoforms for my Contact Form (v5). On tab Locales I've put the Dutch string texts (sting=translation). This works fine. Only the message wich is above my Form (see attached screenpring => line 1 Display Message) is not translated.
How do I do that?
Thanx
Jan

Hi latihan,
The second upload didn't make it either.
How are you adding that line of text Are you using a locale string for it?

I'll give it another try, the uploading. Screenprint of tab Setup / On load / Display Message and tab Locales:

weird, it still seems not to work. I now have made the size smaller.

ok then in this way:
- the text I've put in Setup / On Load / Display Message is:
<h2>Contactformulier</h2>
Vul aub alle gegevens in en uw berichttekst.
Velden met een * zijn verplicht.
and
text in Locales is:
Naam:=Name:
Email-adres:=Email adress:
Onderwerp:=Subject:
Uw bericht:=Message:
Contactformulier=Contact Form
Vul aub alle gegevens in en uw berichttekst. Velden met een * zijn verplicht.=Please fill in all your information and your message text. Fields with a * are required.

Hi Jan,
One problem is that the text
You also have the problem that locale entries have to be on one line.
There are two ways to do this. Using Locales I would do something like this:
Language a
Language b:

<h2>Contactformulier</h2>

is not the same as Vul aub alle gegevens in en uw berichttekst. Velden met een * zijn verplicht
so the Locale code - which is a simple search and replace - won't match it.

Language a
##header##=Contactformulier
##text_1##=Vul aub alle gegevens in en uw berichttekst.br />Velden met een * zijn verplicht.
Language b:
##header##=Contact form
##text_1##=Please fill in all your information and your message text. Fields with a * are required.
and then put in the Custom element <h2>##header##</h2>
<p>##text_1##</p>
Bob
What I did was copying the texts you provided (copy / paste).
Obviously I don't understand you fully, as I don't yet get the reult I want. Sorry, it's all new to me.
Can you please show me what I should do? Thanx.
What I have now is:
Naam:=Name:
Email-adres:=Email adress:
Onderwerp:=Subject:
Uw bericht:=Message:
##header##=Contactformulier
##text_1##=Vul aub alle gegevens in en uw berichttekst.br />Velden met een * zijn verplicht.
##header##=Contact form
##text_1##=Please fill in all your information and your message text. Fields with a * are required.
<h2>##header##</h2>
<p>##text_1##</p>

This into the Dutch Locale box##header##=Contactformulier
##text_1##=Vul aub alle gegevens in en uw berichttekst.<br />Velden met een * zijn verplicht.
and this into the Custom Element on the Designer tab<h2>##header##</h2>
<p>##text_1##</p>

Thanx again Bob, the text is now fully translated correctly. Only above the form (in both languages) the word "Custom" is shown.
Here are screenprints of Setup tab and Form on website (that is if the upload gets well this time)

Hi latihan,
Please open the Custom Element and delete the default label which is 'Custom'. Leave the label box empty.
