Advanced Form Editor
The Advanced Form Editor in Page Studio lets you make quick updates to existing forms yourself without raising tickets or needing a developer. No code, no tickets, no waiting. Here’s how it works.
Step 1: Select ‘Forms’ from the Add-On Components section to start creating a form.
Step 2: Select the type of form you want to deploy.
Step 3: Click on ‘Edit’ in the form section of the page.
Step 4: Select the form component you want to make changes to.
Step 5: Click on the ‘Edit Form’ to start making changes to elements in the form.
There are 8 types of form fields to choose from with each field carrying multiple styles and data input types.
- TextBox: A single-line input field that allows users to enter text such as names, email addresses, or short responses.
- Date: An input field that lets users select a date from a calendar or type one in. It's commonly used for birthdates, appointments, or deadlines.
- RadioButton: A set of options where only one choice can be selected. Typically used for selecting one option out of a predefined set (e.g., gender, payment method).
- CheckBox: An input that allows users to select one or more options independently. Commonly used for agreeing to terms or selecting multiple interests.
- ListBox: A box that displays a list of options, often allowing multiple selections depending on configuration. Users scroll through and select options.
- ComboBox: A combination of a text box and a drop-down list. Users can either select a predefined option or type a new entry.
- HiddenField: An invisible field used to store data that is not visible to users but is submitted with the form (e.g., session tokens, IDs).
- FileUpload: A field that allows users to upload files from their local device (e.g., resumes, images, documents).
Step 6: Clicking on a field within the form will open the field settings to the right of the screen.
There are ‘Basic’ settings that allow you to edit the label of the field, the size of the field, and make the field a required field or not.
Advanced settings let you do a lot more depending on the field type.
Step 7: Once you have made the changes, click on ‘Save’.
