Editing your Form field

In the Form Editor you can:

  • Click on an existing field on the Form to edit the field.
  • Change the order of the fields on your form by clicking and holding = next to the field title and dragging to your desired location.
  • Choose to make the form field required by checking or unchecking Make this field required in the Field Editor.

Editing your form field:

Note:
Selecting Make this field required will make the field required in every Form in which the field is used. If you wish to require the field in one Form while staying optional in another, create two identical custom fields to use - one as a required field and the other as an optional field.
