Hi there,

In the chat widget -- we use a pop-up -- there's the text box with the messages, and below that a smaller input field in which a person needs to type his or her question/text. And then hit 'enter'.

In our experience especially older people often are confused on this last step. They type a text, but then don't know how to send it to us. They see the little envelope button below the input field (for adding an attachment) as a way to send the chat -- like e-mail, which is what they're familiar with -- but that won't help them.

In the input field where they now type their text, there's a gray help text which asks to type their text in there -- in our case the statement is in Dutch. I would like to ask whether we can edit this text, to add that people need to hit 'enter' after they've typed in their text.

I couldn't find this as an option in the admin section, so maybe I'm not looking in the right place, or maybe I can't edit this myself? Could someone help me where to look? Thanks!

Best regards,

Christian

Hi Christian,

This text can't be edited in the way as other widget customizations such as showing/hiding the various icons.  As you mentioned, the text is translated (localized) for various languages.  There is a standard set of translations for each language.

Since the existing Dutch translation was created by another of our customers and they are still active users, what we can do is put the two of you in contact with each other so that you can work out a revision for that bit of text.  Does that sound OK to you?

Very best,
Pam
