Wildform Blog:How to localize your quizzes and surveys

This is a tutorial will show you how to change the default text in quizzes and surveys. The default text is all the text that appears in the quiz or survey that is not entered by you when creating the questions and answers. For instance all the button text such as "Begin Quiz", "Finish Quiz" and "Submit" is default text. This can be very useful for foreign localization (when you want to create a quiz or survey in a foreign language), when you want to change the text for surveys (e.g. change "Begin Quiz" to "Begin Survey") and any time you want to change the default text for any reason.
