REQUIRED FIELD

The Initial Language field allows you to specify how this publication should determine the starting language for the recipient when your survey is available in multiple languages. There are two options.


Prompt respondent to select language before starting survey

The default behavior for a publication is to prompt the respondent to select their language before starting the survey. When selected, another window may appear titled Customize Template Appearance for Language Selection which will allow you to customize the screen that appears when the respondent is prompted to select their language.


If you check the Language Option Allow respondent's browser settings to override initial language, the respondent may not be prompted to select their language if their browser has sent notification of their language preferences and they match one of the available languages.


Set a default language for this publication

If you do not want the respondent to be prompted to select a language at the start of their response, select this option and you will be presented with the Default Language field which will allow you to set the language that respondents will start in by default.
