  1. Choose the locale from the dropdown. In this example we choose Spanish. Note the list of available locales is configured by your frevvo system administrator (Live Forms In-house only).
  2. Browse to your translation file - TravelRequestForm_spanish.properties on disk
  3. Click the upload button. You will see the new locale appear in the list above. In this case named Spanish::locale=spa
  4. Click the application [[image:application_form.gif]] icon Image Added icon to test the form with your translation to this new locale

The string locale=spa in the name is the Url parameter that you need to append to the form's Share Url to make the form appear in Spanish rather than the default. The [[image:application_form.gif]] Image Added test button and the [[image:Application_form_add.gif]] Image Added share button here on the Locale Home Page do that for you automatically. The test & share buttons on the [[V4_Forms_Home_Page | Forms Home page]] are by default for default locale. If a locale Url parameter is not specified it defaults to the default locale.

Translations use UTF-8 encoding by default but you may also upload ISO-8859-1 (Unicode) strings. If you are using Unicode, check the ISO checkbox above the upload button.==== Updating ====

Updating

To update an existing locale translation, edit the downloaded .properties file and re-upload it choosing the same locale name from the Choose Locale dropdown. This will replace the existing translation with the new translation.====

Using

...

The form Url parameter locale= controls which language the form renders. If the parameter is not present or the value is empty (&locale=) or is set to a locale code for which no translation file exists, then the form will render in the default language. To render the form in a different language such as in Spanish rather than the default add &locale=spa to the form Url. The [[image:application_form.gif]] Image Added test button and the [[image:Application_form_add.gif]] Image Added share button on the Locale Home Page do that for you automatically. The test & share buttons on the [[V4_Forms_Home_Page | Forms Home page]] are by default for default locale.
