Forms
Form fields and logic rules
Inside the form builder you add fields (the questions) and, where helpful, logic (rules that show or skip parts based on earlier answers).
Field types
- Display: header and paragraph (text that explains, with no input).
- Basic inputs: name, email, phone, address, date.
- Answers: short text, long text (textarea), dropdown (select), yes/no, checkbox.
For each field set its label, whether it is required, optional help text, and where its answer maps to (a custom field, or a target like "deceased name" when the form feeds a funeral).
Logic rules
A rule reads: if [a field] [equals / is not / is filled / is empty] [value] then [skip to a page / hide / show] [a target]. For example: *if previously married = yes, show the annulment page.*
Tips
- Mark only the truly necessary fields as required — long required forms get abandoned.
- Use a header field to break a long form into friendly sections.
- Map answers thoughtfully when the form feeds a sacrament, so they land on the case correctly. See Reviewing form submissions.
