"Forward to a friend" localization

It would be a good opportunity to make a submission form "Forward to a Friend" localize to different languages.

Agreed, I'd generally just like greater customization of the forward to a friend functionality.

Totally agree, when it's only English it's not useful for the majority of our leads 😞

This feature is very necessary for those of us working on international customers and multilanguage environments. Any news on any update for translation or customization of the Forward to a Friend Form?

Agreed. This should be implemented, otherwise is not a function we can use with non-English speaking clients and prospects.

If we want Forward to a Friend functionality to be more widely used - customization of the form language has to happen.  There are too many language customizations going on in Marketo instances to be limited to just one language on this form.

You actually can customize the field labels to be in the lead's preferred language. If you search, there's a blog post I wrote on this.

Thanks Sanford - I found the blog post for anyone looking for it:

Would be nice to not have to use Velocity on this though.  Not a lot of organizations have Velocity capabilities internally - but if they do this seems like a good method.

Agreed, it's not the best, but at least proves it can be done.
