    Hi there,

    I've been working on the form link below. I added Arabic as a language and then went through and thought I fixed all the translation issues. But when I previewed the form and went to Arabic, it was still English. Can you help me, please?

    Thanks so much!

    Hi Lexi,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. I'm an AI assistant. I'll do my best to help you until someone from the support team is available.

    It seems like you added Arabic as a language but the form still shows English when previewed in Arabic. Here’s how to fix that:

    1. Go to Settings in your Form Builder.
    2. Select Show More Options and then click Edit next to Form Languages.
    3. Add Arabic if not already added, then enter the Arabic translations for all form fields and messages.
    4. Save your changes and preview the form again, switching to Arabic to check the translations.
    5. If your form needs right-to-left alignment for Arabic, you can inject custom CSS in the Form Designer under Styles to align the form properly.

    This should ensure your form displays in Arabic as expected.

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

    Best regards,
    Jotform Support

    Hi Lexi,

    I tested your form it to see if I could replicate the issue, but everything was working properly. Check out the screencast below to see my results:
