  2. Type the question or name.

  3. (Optional) Select if answering this question is compulsory.

  4. Click Save & Close.

Click the Show Advanced Options button to reveal additional controls and functionality, as the following table explains.

Option Description

Question (Label)

Show a different field label (instead of the field name) on the form.

  1. (Optional) Add a value to the Question (Label) field.

    When a Question (Label) is specified, it will override the Question (Name) on your form.

    Using this feature you can:

    • Show multiple fields with the same question or label.

    • Use internal field names for reporting purposes, but show user-friendly field labels on the form.

  2. (Optional) Check the Hide the question checkbox.

    When checked, this setting hides the Question (Name) label.

    It leaves the answer box in place.

Default answer

Prefill the field with a default answer. Field short-codes can also be used to prefill dynamic values directly from responses in other fields within the form.

Placeholder

Provide an example of a response or required format to guide form users. The placeholder text will disappear when a value is typed in.

. (Optional) Add further information and instruction. + When populated, this field presents immediately adjacent to the Question (Name) field.

Answer Rules & Validation

Run validation checks on data entered on the form (such as numbers only, alphabet only, etc) when a form user submits the form, or proceeds to the next page.

Read-only - do not allow entry into this field

Lock a field to prevent form users from modifying a pre-defined field value. For example, you may have a default answer such as 'today’s date' or 'customer ID' that is pre-filled on the form and you do not want form users to change it.

Hidden - do not show this field on the online form

Hide a field to prevent form users from modifying a pre-defined field value. For example, you may have a default answer such as 'today’s date' or 'customer ID' that is pre-filled on the form and you do not want form users to see it.

. Hide this field until certain conditions or responses in other fields are met. + For more information, see Conditional logic section.
