Available field types

Short text, Paragraph, Email, Phone, Date, Dropdown, Single choice, Multiple choice, Rating scale, Signature, and Acknowledgement.

2

Adding options for choice fields

For Dropdown, Single choice, and Multiple choice: enter one option per line in the options textarea. Commas and spaces within option text are fully supported.

3

Rating scale

Set min/max values (e.g. 1–5) and optional labels (e.g. "Not at all" / "Nearly every day"). Respondents click a number button to answer.

4

The body text above the fields

Contracts and waivers open with a full editor — the same one as waiver templates — so headings, bold, italic and numbered or bulleted lists all work. Paste your agreement in and it keeps its shape on the public form, on the signing page, and in the printed copy.

Your edits are never thrown away

While you have unsaved edits, an "Unsaved changes" tag appears next to the dialog title, and closing — by the ×, Cancel, Escape, or clicking outside — asks you to confirm first.

Where the Signature box comes from

The signature box is not one of the fields in the list — it is added by the "Require signature" checkbox at the top, and it always sits last. It is shown in the field list as a greyed-out row so you can see it, with a Remove button that simply unticks the checkbox. If a field above ALSO asks for the signer's name, they will be asked for it twice: delete that field, or remove the signature box, depending on which one you want.

Tips
  • • Rating scales work great for wellness intake forms — e.g. PHQ-9 style questionnaires.
  • • Use "Acknowledgement" for terms or waivers the respondent must check to agree.
  • • Every submission arrives as a PDF attached to the notification email you already receive — an application, an intake form, a signed contract or waiver — so the answers (and the signature, when there is one) are in your inbox without coming back to download them. Everyone who gets form-submission notices gets the attachment.
  • • Reviewing responses: click "Submissions" on any form to see every response. Export them all at once with "↓ CSV", or download a single response as a formatted PDF — each row has a "PDF" button that produces a one-page document (form name, submitter details, every answer in order, and the signature). Handy for filing one applicant at a time, e.g. per instructor.
More detail

Answers are kept in the visitor's browser as they type. If the page reloads, the connection drops, or they come back to the same link a few days later, the form opens with everything they had entered and a one-line note offering "Start over". The draft clears the moment they submit, and after two weeks on its own. Typed signatures are never kept.

(On other form types the same editor holds a shorter intro.) Text written before the editor existed keeps its line breaks and loads straight into it, so nothing needs re-typing. The formatting toolbar stays pinned to the top of the editor as you scroll, so you can select a paragraph anywhere in a long agreement and format it on the spot.

Clicking outside only counts when the click both starts and ends outside, so dragging to select a paragraph and releasing past the edge no longer closes anything. If you do leave, or the tab closes, the edit is kept as a draft on that device: reopening the form offers "Restore them" or "Discard". Saving keeps the dialog open and shows "Saved" with the time, so you can see it landed before you go and preview.

Building an instructor contract? Click "+ Contract template" in the field list to add nine ready-made fields — Effective Date, Signee Name, Business Title, Signee Mailing Address, Term of Agreement, Monthly Membership Fee, Contracted Monthly Hours, Security Deposit Amount, and Security Deposit Status (Paid / Unpaid / Waived dropdown) — in one click. These then become pre-fillable from the Send-for-signing dialog.
