    Hi,


    we are using the form in german language. When a user dont fill up an required field, an english message "This field is required." is shown. Can we change this?

    Thank you for contacting us.

    Since form warnings' default language is English, even if you change your Form Language to your own native language, this will not change the values that Form Warnings section already have. For you to be able to change the language that these warnings displayed in your form, you need to set it manually. To do it, just go to your Form Settings, from here browse for more options, look for Form Warnings and click edit. Since you were dealing with the required field's error message, look for the *Required section and input the value following your language written format.

    Below is the actual demo and result:

    NOTE: I've used the Google Translate in translating the error message from English to German and pasted it the Required Warning section.

    If you need further assistance, please let us know, we'll be glad to help. Thank you!
