###Getting Started
-
Add a variable called languages as a multiple choice field listing your languages as the choices. Make sure you add the action tag @HIDDEN. Make sure your choice values for languages are numeric, starting with 1. Example:
1, English
2, Español -
Refresh the page and you're ready to start entering translations. Remember you have to add the field first and save, then go back and edit it to add translations.
###Title and Instructions
- To add translations for the Survey Title and Instructions for an instrument, add a variable called survey_text_[form_name]. Each instrument should have it's own field with a variable name of "survey_text_[form name]" (Replace [form name] with the name of each instrument). Make sure you add the action tag @HIDDEN.
###Completion Text
-
To add translations for Survey Completion Text, add a variable called survey
_text
_finish. Make sure you add the action tag @HIDDEN. -
If you have just one instrument, you can just add the survey
_text
_finish variable and add the Title, Instructions and Completion Text to it.
###Survey Settings (v1.11+)
