    Hey Guys,

    i realy L O V E your plugin. But i have there one question.
    There is a german version of the form fields and i read that i need to change my wordpress language to get the german version used.
    Is it possible to use the englisch backend version of wordpress, but use at the same time the german version of your plugin? Because the users on my site should read everything in german, because these englisch - german mix is not good solution.

    Could you tell me how this works, or any kind of solution?

    Thanks :)

    If you wanted to display the front end form fields in German you would configure your form so that the Field Labels, Names, etc. are in German. You would then have to translate the standard form elements which are standard (such as sub-labels for the advanced fields). To translate these you can either do so using PHP code and the filters for the sub-labels, which you can find here:

    http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Developer_Docs#Sublabels

    Or you could use a plugin like WPML which supports translating your forms into any language. You can find WPML here:

    And their Gravity Forms Add-On can be found here:
