Translate a custom field

Show a custom field's question and answer choices in another language on the Kiosk.

Before you start

• You must be a Global Admin, or a Local Admin at the Location.
• Custom fields are set per Location. Translating one here doesn't change a custom field with the same name at another Location.
• Each language needs every part of the field entered again: the question, the answer choices, and any answers that put a visitor on Pending Approval. Have all the translated text ready.

Steps

1. On the Dashboard, click the Settings icon, then click Locations.
2. Click the Edit (pencil) icon for the Location.
3. Click the Custom Fields tab.
4. Click the Edit icon for the custom field.
5. Click the Custom Field Languages list and select the language.
6. In Enter the content/name of the custom field, type the question as it should read in that language.
7. If the field is a drop-down list, type the translated answer choices in Enter the dropdown list separated by the return key, one per line.
8. If Prevent check-in when certain answers are given is on, type the translated answers that put a visitor on Pending Approval.
9. Click Save.

Result

Visitors who choose that language at the Kiosk see the translated question and answer choices. Visitors who choose a language with no translation see the English version.
