validation message not saving

  1. I'm want to change the validation message language but after saving it's appear to have reverted back to a black field. As an example, I have a form in Spanish that I have as a test tried to change the validation message to Dutch. It keeps reverting back to Spanish

    Liink to form.

  2. Which validation message are you referring to? When I trigger field validation it appears to be in Spanish. See this screenshot: http://grab.by/aaCC

  3. Hi Carl, Thanks for your reply and sorry for my late response; the example was meant to display a Dutch translation rather than Spanish. It still shows the Spanish translations however I changed the validation message to Dutch.

    The behavior is odd, one that I haven't seen before. After changing text in the validation field followed by save, it reverts back to Spanish.

  4. How have you translated the validation messages?

  5. On the test example included, I just replaced the Spanish text with the Dutch in the advanced tab. After saving it would revert back to the Spanish text. I have a sneaking suspicion if I delete the field and start over it would work.

  6. I have a similar problem. But the Russian language. In all fields, I chose custom validation messages in Russian. But it remains only in the first field. The rest is dumped on by default.
    Since English is no problem, I can do different messages. In Russian only the first field.
