Dropdown field

Modified on Tue, 12 Nov at 10:45 AM

The dropdown is a closed-ended field type where people can select only one answer from a menu of choices. It's ideal for presenting a long list of options without cluttering your form.
Despite the Single Choice field, Dropdown is presented as a drop-down list rather than an array of buttons to the input that takes up less space in the form.

There are several particularities that are available in the Dropdown field settings. In the Fields section, click on the Dropdown field to be able to edit it.

Proceed with the following actions.

Hide Label:

Set the label to be hidden or shown by switching the toggle button on/off correspondingly.

Please note

Even if the Label is hidden, the title of the field will still be received in the notification emails.
In case you would like to receive the email without the label of the field, then manually delete it from the Field Label textbox in the Settings.

Field Label:

Type in the Label of the field, the title you want your users to see.

Instructions for users:

Add Instructions if you want to provide additional information regarding the Address field. You can use this option to specify the exact input type you require from them. All form fields that require user input have an instruction box where you can add some additional information.

Choices:

You can add several options to the field.
In this section, the options can be edited, arranged, or deleted. If you'd like to have a checked variant in default, simply tick on the box.

Other option:

By switching on the Other option, you'll let users add their own choice to the field.

Required:

You can activate the Required option, to signify that the field can not be left blank (a red asterisk * next to the field will indicate that it is required).

Limit:

You can set a limit for each choice, ensuring it can't be selected more times than the specified limit.
