Hi.
my site language is in Chinese, however i don’t want my states, country dropdown in gravity form to show in Chinese, i would like it to show in English, i never translated those manually, which language file can i modify to remove the translations?
I understand you received a reply to your support ticket already. This is the solution:
WordPress translates the countries automatically. If you want to prevent this, you can use this snippet:
add_filter( 'gform_countries', function ( $countries ) {
$countries = array( 'Afghanistan',
'Åland Islands',
'Albania',
'Algeria',
'American Samoa',
'Andorra',

PHP code usually goes in your theme functions.php file, check the following link for more details: https://docs.gravityforms.com/where-do-i-put-this-code/#php
If you don’t want to edit the functions.php file of your theme, you can create a custom functions plugin, you can see a tutorial on how to do it here: http://justintadlock.com/archives/2011/02/02/creating-a-custom-functions-plugin-for-end-users
