Basic Fields

How to use Single line, Long text, Email, Phone, Number and URL fields.

Single line

Use for short free-text values.

Examples:

  • Company
  • Job title
  • Reference number
  • City
  • Subject

Available common controls:

  • Label
  • Placeholder
  • Help text
  • Required
  • Width
  • Alignment
  • Conditional Logic

Long text

Use when the visitor needs several lines.

Examples:

  • Message
  • Project description
  • Comments
  • Application answer

Use Help text when you want to explain how detailed the answer should be.

Email

Use for email addresses.

Email fields have special importance because they can be selected for:

  • Reply-To email field
  • Submitter autoresponder recipient
  • {field:FIELD_KEY} variables

Add an Email field before configuring an autoresponder.

Phone

Use for telephone numbers.

Phone is intended for phone/contact information rather than general text.

Number

Use when the answer should be numeric.

Examples:

  • Quantity
  • Age
  • Number of employees
  • Budget value

For a predefined range/question score, consider Number scale instead.

URL

Use for website addresses.

Examples:

  • Company website
  • Portfolio
  • LinkedIn profile

DoorFall validates non-empty URL answers as URLs before accepting the submission.
