Incease the range of lanuguages

I would have to agree. We often send items to Mexico & Latin America as we are expanding to where we need Spanish to be an option as well.

Hi William and Amber,

I assume you are referencing the new feature to offer form error messages in French and German. Yes, we will add more languages in the coming months. Can you please let me know what languages you're interested?

Thanks,

Hi everyone,

I also just wanted to clarify that prior to the January release, Marketo already supported the ability to send emails, as well as create forms and landing pages, in various languages such as Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian, Japanese, Chinese and Hebrew (just to name a few).

The additional functionality that we are adding in the Jan2013 release is 2 buckets:

(1) expanding the ability to market to global leads by letting MLM users specify if form error messages should be English, French German

(2) letting MLM users specify their own language, locale and time zone preference for the app

Thanks!

I need to have Japanese error messages.

Can we define our own languages in javascript?

Add another set for Japanese for example?

Hi James,

Just a heads up that we are planning on adding form error message support for the following new languages with our March release:

• Italian
• Spanish
• Japanese
• Korean
• Chinese (simplified)
• Chinese (traditional)
• Portuguese (Brazil)
• Hebrew
• Russian

Until then, as a workaround, you could override the French or German error messages to get Japanese error messages by adding custom Javascript in the landing page template. There is more information at the end of this article: Customize Language for Form Validation Messages


Just to provide you a example, here's part of the Javascript code needed to have Japanese form validation messages appear (by setting form error messages to be "German" when you create the form):

    German : {
      required : "????????????",
      selectRequired : "????",
      emailInvalid : "???E????????????????",
      telephoneInvalid : "????????????????",
      pleaseWait : "???????????"
    }
