Other field: Change the placeholder?

    Fecha de consulta 12 de marzo de 2024, 17:47

    Quisiera cambiar el texto que sale por defecto cuando uno coloca una pregunta de múltiple opción, en la casilla de "otro" a idioma español, es decir, deseo cambiar el siguiente texto "Please type another option here", cuando se selecciona la casilla "Otro".

    Aclaro, no me refiero a cambiar el texto "Otro" sino el que está en el cuadrante en el que el usuario puede escribir

    Gracias!

    Hi mtirigall,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Unfortunately, our Spanish Support agents are busy helping other Jotform users at the moment. I'll try to help you in English using Google Translate, but you can reply in whichever language you feel comfortable using. Or, if you'd rather have support in Spanish, let us know and we can have them do that. But, keep in mind that you'd have to wait until they're available again.

    Now, let me help you with your question. To be able to translate  “Please select” and “other”, you can set the Show Text in Empty Option to Por favor seleccion for Please Select and Display Other Option to Otro. Let me show you how:

    • In Form Builder, click the dropdown field and click the gear icon.
    • Go to the Options tab and toggle ON the Show Text in Empty Option, then input Por favor seleccion for Please Select.

    Sames goes to Display Other Option to Otro.

    Converting the form into Spanish Image 2 Screenshot 41 Screenshot 21

    Give it a try and let us know how it goes.

    Thank you, Mafe, but that is not the problem I'm having.

    When you activate the "Other" alternative in a multiple option table, it appears a white box with a text that is "Please type another option here" in order the use can write something. That is the text that I want to change. How can I do it?

    Hi mtirigall,

    Thanks for patiently waiting. Unfortunately, the feature you are looking for is not available as of now. While the feature you’re looking for isn’t currently available, rest assured we’re always working to add new services and features to Jotform. I've gone ahead and escalated your request to our Developers. When or if it's implemented depends on their workload, how viable it is, and how many other users request it. If there are any updates, we’ll circle back to this thread and let you know. 

    Thanks for your patience and understanding, we appreciate it.
