How can I translate sign up form validation messages?

Hi Caroline,

As per my original question, I already did what you suggested - set the language of the list to translate the items which are translated only by your system. Despite doing so, the validation messages are still displayed in English.

Maybe I’m missing something, but it seems to me, that validation msg are controlled only by the list’s language settings only. 

I set a few different languages as the list’s language to test if it has any influence on the validation’s messages displayed in the submission form, but it makes no difference - those are always displayed in English.

Should I recreate a submission form so it picks up the correct language settings?

Please kindly advise.

Yes, I would not be posting without double checking it.

What works:

• general unsubscribes page for a list - respects language settings for  buttons etc. and validation messages.

What is not working

• sign up form validation messages are always displayed in English, regardless of the language settings of the list. I tested it with a combination of existing and new forms and lists.

I’d love to get it working as validation messages are important factor when it comes to the rate of successful sign-ups.

Thanks.

Peter

Additionally, could you post a screenshot of the signup form text which is still appearing in English? If you’re able to PM me the list ID as well I can take a look.

Thanks for the info. This is very unfortunate, as the sign up forms are the basis of your product. I hope this gets fixed pretty soon as there is nothing worse as partially translated strings. This reflects badly both on the website where the form is embedded but also on the product itself.

Thanks for bringing it up to the dev team.

On the other note. I’m creating a consent form. I want to have a checkbox with a label which includes a link to the privacy policy. From what I see the label field is not rendering HTML. How this can be achieved?

I declare that I have read <a href="#somelink">Regulations of the online shop</a> and I accept its terms and conditions

I really hope this is achievable in a nice way. I don’t want to add it as a regular text underneath the checkbox.

Hello, I am quite late to the discussion, but I have a similar problem. I would like to translate This field is required to something in my language: Slovenian.

I switched the language to Slovenian. This is an embedeed signup form. 

If Klaviyo need a Slovenian value I will gladly provide one :).

I encountered the same problem in Abandoned cart flow, where I can’t find a way to translate values like quantity and Cost.

I hope there is a way to solve this.

Best regards,
Iztok 

Hi, David, many thanks for this.

Should I follow the same procedure fixing the problem below too? Encircled are translated values by default for I can’t seem to find an editor.

Thanks again

Iztok
