Looking to where I can change the text for a "List with Comment" question type. The text I want to change is the "Please enter your comment here" of this question type and even perhaps the size of the box. I've looked through the template and CSS files and cannot locate where this is. I have previously searched forums and other place online and have come up with nothing. Can anyone help? I've added an attachment of the question type for visual inspection.

The size can definitely be changed via the template css. You'll need to search for the id of this textbox and you can directly use CSS on it (if only this box should be changed, otherwise you'll need to go for the class).

The text should be part of the translation files.

Thanks for the fast reply. I have adjusted height in the CSS. I have located where you can edit the text. I originally tried editing the translation file "en.po"; however, that did not accept the change. Found out that you need to edit qanada.php file. Only issues is this is a Global file. Is there a way i can make a copy of this qanda.php file, rename it to let's say qanada2.php and have my particular survey call that instead? Reason I ask is we run multiple surveys and my fear is that I will soon forget this change I made.

If this is not part of the PO file (which I just can't believe) there is not much you can do. Did you create a different language and applied this to your survey? Maybe this works. Type "MyVerySpecialEnglish".

If you want to change that label for all list-with-comment questions, add this to the end of template.js:

Is this method still relevant? I have tried the code and it does not appear to work for me, but perhaps I am doing something wrong. Thank you

Edit: I figured it out, this code can now be placed directly within the source code of the question.

If I want to change each one of those labels, do you know if there is any way?

The original post is in reference to a list with comments question type; this question type only has one comments box. Would you perhaps be asking about changing the label of the comments box in another question type?

Sorry AGK 925, I thought it would be appropriate here

No need to be sorry I just wanted to make sure I understood your question. For what question type do you want to change the comment label?

ok. No, I'm asking for this type of question even

OK, for the question you want to change the comment box label, in the box where you type the question text there is a button called source. When that is selected you can see the source code for the question. Here you will type

Below the code for the question text.
