Hello!

I have inserted a calendar for respondents to choose their date of birth, through the Qualtrics library.

The question "Enter a date" is in English and I would like to put it in Portuguese, is it possible to make this change?
When I edit it manually, it loses its calendar format.

I have just one more question for anyone who can help me.
How can I edit the calendar so that the respondent chooses their date of birth without having to scroll through all the months from 2022 to 1956 (for example). Is it not possible to edit the day, month and year individually?

Thanks a lot.

The date picker in the Qualtrics library is really poor. You should use flatpickr instead. There are a number of posts about flatpickr on the Community. You can localize for Portugese. Year input is better, but unfortunately, respondents would still have to scroll through years.
You could use cleave.js and just have them type the date in the desired format.

Thank you for your help.
However, I am a bit new to the platform and don't really understand where to start.

Can you tell me what steps I should follow?

Many thanks.
