Configure the query for multi-language surveys

The individual JavaScript files must be correctly integrated into the index file so that the survey can be displayed correctly in the WebApp in all languages created. Additional icons may also need to be integrated for newly created languages.

  1. Go to the  Basis Home tab and click on Job Start job, then select the export job „Feedback_V2_Export_00_Start“ to generate the .js files for the new feedback form. This creates another file with the new language code for each existing JavaScript file.
    Example: "Feedback_Template_Feedback_NewYearsEve.js" is supplemented by "Feedback_Template_Feedback_NewYearsEve-pt.js"
  2. Go to the Einrichtung Configurations tab and select Html Web > Web Ordner Web Folder Administration, then open the folder Ordner Bestellung Feedback_V2 > Ordner Bestellung Templates. All existing JS files should be stored in this folder.
  3. In the Ordner Bestellung Feedback_V2 folder, select the Html HTML-file "Demo_Mulit-Lanuage", click on export festplatte Save to hard drive in the toolbar and select a filing location.
  4. Copy the file and Save it under a new name.
    Example: Feedback_NewYearsEve.html
  5. Open the new file in an editor.
  6. Replace the name of the old JavaScript file with the name of the new JavaScript file in three places in the HTML file. The prefix remains the same, it is sufficient to replace the name of the new feedback.
    Example: the old survey is called "Demo_Mehrsprachig", the new survey is called "Feedback_NewYearsEve" 
    1. in line 44: document.getElementById("Language").setAttribute("data-bpWebApp-templateDataSrc", "templates/Feedback_Template_Feedback_Silvesterball.js")

  7. All settings are included for the standard languages English and French. For newly created languages, some of the buttons, flags, IDs, classes or HTML tags must be added individually.
    1. button, e.g. <button title="Portuguese" onclick="startBpWebApp('pt');" id="PT"><img src="images/portugal_24.png" alt=""></button>
      Note: Save the new icon to a suitable location and reference it correctly in the HTML or Css file.

    2. document.getElementById("PT").setAttribute("title", bpWebApp.localeObj[locale].Portuguese)

  8. In order NOT to use languages that have already been created in a survey, the corresponding lines in the HTML file MUST be deleted or commented out (<! -->).
