How to change the button text from submit to next or any others? was created by mrli999
I would like to change the button text from submit to next. I searched the forum and finded the following resolution:

$(document).ready(function(){
var submitText = 'Next';
$('#movesubmitbtn .ui-button-text').text(submitText);
});

I copied the above script to the template.js file, and put it at the end of this file. But doesn't work.


I inspected my survey the find the name of submit button is:
<button type="submit" id="movesubmitbtn" value="movesubmit" name="movesubmit" accesskey="l" class="submit button btn btn-lg btn-primary"> Submit </button>

And my limesurvey version is 2.65.3+170607.

If I would like to change the text for the submit button. What should I do? thanks.

I wasn't able to implement this for version Version 2.62.2+170203. Can this be implemented with only "3 and higher versions?

Thanks

The script above should work in 2.x versions.

This will work in 3.x versions:

Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
 
  $(document).on('ready pjax:scriptcomplete',function(){
    var submitText = 'My new submit';
    $('#ls-button-submit[value="movesubmit"]').text(submitText);  
  });
</script>

I tried the following and it is not working:(. Where do we need to put it? I have currently placed it in the "source" of the question where the "Submit" button needs to appear.

$(document).ready(function(){
var submitText = 'Next';
$('#movesubmitbtn .ui-button-text').text(submitText);
});

This should work in that version. If not, activate a sample survey and give a link here so we can see the source.

Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
  $(document).ready(function(){
    var submitText = 'My new submit';
    $('#movesubmitbtn').text(submitText);
  });
</script>

@Nina265, to avoid confusion, please always state which LimeSurvey version your script is for.
