| Description |
The description that appears under the form field. Although optional, we
recommend including a description for any field that needs instructions. |
| Always display even if previously completed |
Use for fields for which the prospect can submit the same value more than one
time. If this option isn’t enabled, the field doesn’t show again after a prospect
has completed it. |
| Do not prefill |
Use for fields that you don’t want to prefill. Most fields are set to prefill
by default, which automatically populates a form field that was collected previously
from a prospect on the same device.
Prefill isn’t supported for TextArea field
types or fields set to “Maintain the initial value upon subsequent form
submissions.”
We recommend automatically prefilling the email field, which
helps to prevent incomplete form submissions. Also, prospects can review and
report incorrect prefill information.
|
| Maintain the initial value upon subsequent form submissions |
Retains the initial field value when the prospect submits more forms with different
values for the same field. For example, if a prospect submits a form with a different
Company field value, the Company field holds the value of the original record. This option
doesn’t apply to the Email field. |
