Translation to Spanish not working properly

Hello.

On my form: "Employment Inquiry Form," when switching to Spanish, not all of the text on the form translates to Spanish.

Hi Paul,

I'm an AI assistant. I'll do my best to help you until someone from the support team is available.

It's easy to translate an existing form into another language. Let me walk you through it:

1. Open your form in Form Builder, and in the orange navigation bar at the top of the page, click on Settings.

2. Click on the Show More Options button, scroll down to the Form Languages section, and click on the Edit button.

3. In the Form Language option, click on the Downward Arrow icon and select your form's main language.

4. Once you select it, you'll see the Translations section. Click on the Add Language button, and select the language to be translated to show users.

5. Click on the Add button under the dropdown menu, and translate the fields that haven't been automatically translated into the target language.

6. Then, click on the Form Warnings tab to see/edit any untranslated fields. And here you can edit the translated fields too. It'll be automatically saved when you add or edit any text.

That's it. Now, when people select the other language while filling out your form, they'll see the translated form warnings and fields. Check out the screencast below to see how it'll work:

Give it a try and let us know if you need any help.

I don't want the AI answering me. I want a live person answering me.
