Choose Required Field Notice For Free

Why use optional fields is always better than required : An asterisk is obvious to you, not to everyone, believe me, there are always some who do not understand. There are always more fields required than optional. Less visual noise on your form makes it more readable and therefore faster to complete.

A required question means the form owner requires an answer for that question before you can submit the form. If you have no response to this field, you can fill in None, Nil, Not Available, Does not apply to me, 0, or other related answers.

Yes. Click on any field in your Form Editor to open its Edit Field panel on the left side of the page. Tick the checkbox Required field and an asterisk will appear next to the label of the form field. The field is now required and visitors can't submit the form without filling it in.

Fields can be marked as mandatory, meaning they must contain a value before the record can be saved. Mandatory fields are marked with a field status indicator before the label.

The solution is simple: mark all the required fields. Be as explicit and transparent as possible: for every single field that must be completed, mark it as required.

To edit a field, click the Edit icon of the field from the custom field list. In the Add Field/ Edit Field overlay, you can check the Make this field as required checkbox to make the field mandatory. A pop up appears to confirm this.

When you make a field required, people must enter an answer to the field in order to submit their entry. When someone tries to submit an entry without filling out a required field, we highlight the problematic fields and display an error message to let them know the field is required.
