Survey Language

Hey, I made a survey written in English with Arabic translation. The final version has a drop-down menu for choosing a language, and now I realised that most of the participants are actually Arabic speaking with poor English proficiency so I want to change the base language to Arabic instead. Is that possible without remaking the entire survey from scratch? Any help would be appreciated! thanks a million in advance!

You can specify the default (starting) language in the panel (if sending/generating invite links) or through the q_lang parameter in the url.

@TomG how would that look like if a survey is programmed in english and german? add "&qlang=de" does not work to make the survey start in German...

In the case of "Anonymous Survey Link" where no parameters are attached to the link, add the following after the link: @hamada: `?Q_lang=AR` @cloof: `?Q_lang=DE` In case the link has some parameters attached to it, replace `?` with `&`
