"other" option only appears in one language was created by VogelM
I use LimeSurvey Version 4.3.30+201207.
I imported a survey in 3 languages.
When I have question where I use the "other" option I can only choose one of the three langugages for a text. Thus it appears the same text for the "other" option in all three languages.
What can I do?

Thank you for your help!

Hi,
what you can do?

1. File a bug report, or search the bug tracker whether it is there already.

2. Use 3.x.LTS. Don't use version 4.x. for production. It is still unstable - as you realized and is displayed in the download section.

By the way,
you find this in the manual


So, it seems to be a feature, not a bug.

They obviously can. They DID IT. They shouldn't though. ;-)
