Web form checklist

Web form checklist

This is a list of basic information needed to begin creating a Web form.


Title

  • The title will appear at the top of the webform page

  • Used to select the form for embedding on content pages, but is not displayed when embedded

  • This is a required field

Administrative description

  • Only appears on administrative pages; not seen by people filling in the form

  • Can be used to give a better indication of the purpose of the form than just the title provides

  • This description is considered when filtering the forms list by keyword

Categories

  • Only appears on administrative pages; not seen by people filling in the form

  • Multiple categories can be assigned, though only one new category can be created at a time; you would have to edit the form settings to add more

  • These categories can be used to filter the forms list

Status

  • Generally speaking, is the form open or closed to submissions?

  • Open forms may be closed by other settings (for example, by hitting a submission limit)
