how to fix Lattice survey multilingual error Spanish version shows English

Not specified by the original author.

TL;DR

Fix this in Lattice by acting on the exact problem first: in Lattice, open the survey language settings, confirm the Spanish translations are complete for every question including questions added after translation, check the respondent language preference is set to Spanish for the affected group, republish the survey after completing the missing translations, and preview as a Spanish respondent before resending invitations. Do not rerun the same survey, report or export unchanged, because the same inputs produce the same failure. Prove the fix on one survey, team or department first, then rerun the full scope and reconcile the results.

Lattice survey multilingual error Spanish version shows English questions

Use this when

• The operation in Lattice fails with this exact problem: Lattice survey multilingual error Spanish version shows English questions.
• The same failure repeats on retry with unchanged inputs.
• A survey launch, results dashboard, manager report or action plan is blocked until this is resolved.

Not for this skill when

• The notice is a platform outage from the vendor. Resolve that first, then return here if this problem remains.
• The operation completes and you only disagree with an interpretation call such as which driver to prioritise. That is a people analytics judgement, not this failure.

Steps

1. Reproduce the failure on one named survey, team or department in Lattice and record the full problem text plus the survey, team or period involved. Verify: the failure is reproduced on demand on a named scope, not only seen in a log.
2. Apply the specific fix for this problem: in Lattice, open the survey language settings, confirm the Spanish translations are complete for every question including questions added after translation, check the respondent language preference is set to Spanish for the affected group, republish the survey after completing the missing translations, and preview as a Spanish respondent before resending invitations. Verify: the single failing survey, team or department now behaves as the fix predicts, or the corrected value is visible on the record.
3. Check neighbouring surveys, teams or departments that share the same distribution list, roster sync or dashboard, because this class of failure rarely affects only one group. Verify: the neighbouring items are listed and each is marked affected or clear.
4. Rerun the original operation in Lattice on the previously failing scope, watching for the same problem rather than assuming success from a quiet log. Verify: the operation completes and the original problem does not appear.
5. Compare the result against the source of truth, the raw response record, the HR roster record or the survey platform record, so a silent partial success is caught. Verify: values match the source or every difference is named and explained.
6. Record the fix, the triggering input and the verification result on the survey run log so the next occurrence is recognised immediately. Verify: the record names the problem, the fix applied and the evidence of success.

How to fix - Lattice survey multilingual error Spanish version shows English questions

The how to phrasing for the same failure in Lattice. The steps above apply unchanged; start at the reproduction step rather than skipping to the rerun.

Lattice troubleshooting for this failure

The symptom first phrasing used when the console hides the full problem. Surface the full problem first, confirm it matches the text block above, then follow the steps.

Why it happens

Questions added or edited after the translation step show in the default language, so a partly translated survey shows English for exactly the questions touched after translation.

Edge cases

• The survey was reopened, the roster was resynced or a team was restructured after the failing run started. Refresh the survey state and reapply the fix against the current values, not the values from the failed run.
• The single group proof passes but the full rerun still fails on other groups. Treat each remaining failure as its own scope, because a shared distribution list or dashboard can hide more than one cause.
• The source systems disagree on the correct value. The raw response record governs response counts, the HR roster governs who was invited, and the platform record governs what was sent or shown; record which source won and why.

Compatibility: Lattice at current versions, plus the survey platform, roster or reporting tool the query names; no extra tooling beyond access to the source records needed to verify results.

TL;DR

Fix this in Lattice by acting on the exact problem first: check in Lattice whether the Spanish version was built from a duplicated survey that still points at the English question bank, compare the Spanish question list against the English one question by question, fix the duplicated survey to use the translated questions, and test the full Spanish path end to end before launch.

Lattice troubleshooting for this failure

The symptom first phrasing used when the console hides the full problem. Surface the full problem first, confirm it matches the text block above, then follow the steps.

Why it happens

A duplicated survey keeps the source language question references unless the translator step is rerun on the copy, so the version flag says Spanish while the content stays English.

Edge cases

• The survey was reopened, the roster was resynced or a team was restructured after the failing run started. Refresh the survey state and reapply the fix against the current values, not the values from the failed run.
• The single group proof passes but the full rerun still fails on other groups. Treat each remaining failure as its own scope, because a shared distribution list or dashboard can hide more than one cause.

TL;DR

Fix this in Help center translations by acting on the exact symptom first: open the Spanish version of the same article, apply the same correction that landed in English instead of waiting for a full retranslation, mark the translation as reviewed, and check the other locales of that article for the same stale paragraph. Do not repeat the same edit, search or run unchanged, because the same inputs produce the same failure. Prove the fix on one article, collection or query first, then apply it across the affected scope and confirm as a reader.

English fix published, Spanish article still shows old wording

Use this when

• Work in Help center translations shows this exact symptom: English fix published, Spanish article still shows old wording.
• The same symptom repeats after a retry with unchanged inputs.
• Readers or support agents are blocked until this item is corrected.

Not for this skill when

• The help center platform itself is down or returning outage notices. Resolve that first, then return here if this symptom remains.
• The content is correct and you only want a style or tone rewrite. That is an editorial pass, not this fix.

Steps

1. Reproduce the symptom with the smallest scope that still shows it in Help center translations, and record the article, collection or query involved plus the exact wording from the code block above. Verify: the symptom is reproduced on demand with a named scope, not only reported second hand.
2. Apply the specific fix for this symptom: open the Spanish version of the same article, apply the same correction that landed in English instead of waiting for a full retranslation, mark the translation as reviewed, and check the other locales of that article for the same stale paragraph. Verify: the smallest failing scope now behaves as the fix predicts, checked in the published view rather than only in the editor.
3. Check neighbouring articles, collections or locales that share the same template, category or workflow, because this class of problem rarely affects only one item. Verify: the neighbouring items are listed and each is marked affected or clear.
4. Repeat the original reader or agent action in Help center translations that exposed the symptom, using the same query, link or workflow as the first attempt. Verify: the action completes and the original symptom does not appear.
5. Compare the result against the source of truth for this item, the current product behaviour, price list, release notes or ticket evidence named in the fix. Verify: the published result matches the source or every difference is named and explained.
6. Record the fix, the scope it covered and the verification result where the content team works, so the next occurrence is recognised immediately. Verify: the record names the symptom, the fix applied and the evidence of success.

How to fix - help center translation outdated English fix not reflected in Spanish article error failure

The how to phrasing for the same problem in Help center translations. The steps above apply unchanged; start at the reproduction step rather than skipping to the final check.

Help center translations troubleshooting for this symptom

The symptom first phrasing used when the full message is hidden. Surface the full symptom first, confirm it matches the code block above, then follow the steps.

Why it happens

Locale versions are separate documents in most help centers, so editing the English source never changes published translations until someone edits or re-requests each locale copy.

Edge cases

• The symptom appears in one locale, collection or audience view only. Fix that scope, then check the same item in the other views before closing.
• A cached or indexed copy keeps showing the old state after the fix. Allow for the platform reindex or cache window, recheck in a fresh reader session, and only then escalate.
• Two items have near identical titles. Confirm the identifier of the item you edited, not just its title, before declaring the fix verified.

Compatibility: Help center translations at current versions, plus the help center admin, search or API surface the query names; no extra tooling beyond reader level access to verify the published result.
