Please Note: that this section goes through some aspects of web development so a basic understanding of HTML and CSS will be beneficial.
Translations are used to translate fields on to your landing page.
You can change the names for the generic error handling as well as the fields that appear and your site and the place holders.
For Editors
e.g. Changing Surname to "Lastname" would change the field name on the form
Adding "please enter a value here..." would display the box with this value.
For Developers
We use HTML data attributes to trigger translations such as the example below:
<p data-db-localized-content="DESCRIPTION"></P>
If that's in your HTML code, a new translation for DESCRIPTION would be created for editors to change or translate.
Here are some other tags that can be used.
data-db-localized-alt for image alt attributes
<img data-db-localized-alt="COMPETITION_ALT" />
data-db-localized-title for image or paragraph title attributes
<p data-db-localized-title="FEATURE_1_TITLE">Content</p>
data-db-localized-src for image src attributes
<img data-db-localized-src="COMPETITION_THUMBNAIL" />
data-db-localized-placeholder for input placeholders
<input type="email" data-db-localized-placeholder="F_1_EMAIL_PLACEHOLDER"></input>
data-db-localized-value for input values
<input type="submit" data-db-localized-value="FORM_SUBMIT"></input>
data-db-localized-content-value any inner HTML content of an element
<input type="submit" data-db-localized-value="FORM_SUBMIT"></input>
