How to use the Text field.

Describes what the text field does in forms

Updated this week

The text field is intended to receive short text responses.


​

The following fields are available when configuring this field.

Label - The field name

Description - Text entered here will appear between the field name and the text box.

Is Required? - Select "Yes" if text must be entered for this field before being allowed to submit.

Admin Only? - If yes, this field will ONLY appear when editing a previous form submission and is meant to be filled out by an administrator.

Is Hidden? - This will hide the field from the submitter's view. This is needed when a form has submissions with this field already, as those can not be deleted.

Is Conditional? - Makes the visibility of this field dependent on the answer to another field.

Placeholder - Text that should appear in the field by default. It will disappear once a value is entered. Use this to include an example of a valid input, some helpful text, or a default answer.

Character Limit - The maximum number of characters a response can be.
​

Example:


​Label: Favorite Color

Description: Please enter your absolute favorite color here.

Placeholder: blue, red, green, etc...
