Have you tried a language override of JGLOBAL_SELECT_SOME_OPTIONS?

Ah, I'd never noticed that before.

OK, reading the 'chosen' documentation, you can set that in the options ...

https://harvesthq.github.io/chosen/options.html

So in the Fabrik global settings, under Form, in the "Enhanced Dropdown Options", you can add "placeholder_text_multiple" ... I just did a test, adding it to my existing 'search_contains' option ...

{"search_contains":true, "placeholder_text_multiple":"some test string"}

So to set the single and multiple ...

{"placeholder_text_single":"your string here","placeholder_text_multiple":"some test string"}

... or just the multiple ...

{"placeholder_text_multiple":"some test string"}

At some point I might bake that in, so we automatically set those two options, using language strings.

OK, I went ahead and fixed it so we just use the global J! strings ...

https://github.com/Fabrik/fabrik/commit/b25d44968017509496b8d6e5ccb1e45eeb65056c

... using the same three strings J! uses for 'chosen' options:

placeholder_text_multiple = JGLOBAL_TYPE_OR_SELECT_SOME_OPTIONS
placeholder_text_single = JGLOBAL_SELECT_AN_OPTION
no_results_text = JGLOBAL_SELECT_NO_RESULTS_MATCH

If you specify any of those three options in your custom "Enhanced Dropdown Options", we'll use what you set. If you don't, we'll use those language strings.

So ... they should automatically translate to the language in use.

You'll need to do a github update to pick up the changes.
