An Example Of Conditional Fields: 

Suppose you have a webform with a radio field title “Person type” with the options FacultyStaff, and Student and a radio field titled Student classification with the options Freshman, Sophomore, Junior, and Senior. If the user selects the “Person Type” Student, you want to know what their classification is (freshman, sophomore, junior, or senior). However, you do not want to display the “Student classification” field to users who identify as Faculty or Staff.

  1. Add a condition to show the “Student classification” field when the value of the “Person type” field is “Student”. You’re going to want to do this in the “Student” field
    • Conditions if Person field = checkboxes:
      • Conditions for student: State = Visible if “all” of the following met: Student “checkboxes” “checked”
      • Hidden if “all” of the following is met: Student “checkboxes” “unchecked”
    • Conditions if Person type = select:
      • Conditions for student: State = Visible if “all” of the following is met: Person”Select” Value is “Student”
      • Hidden if “all” of the following is met: Person “Radios” Value is not “Student”
    • Conditions if Person type = radios:
      • Conditions for student: State = Visible if “all” of the following is met: Person “Radios” Value is “Student”
      • Hidden if “all” of the following is met: Person Select Value is not “Student”
  2. Add a condition to require the “Student classificaiton” field when the value of the “Person type” field is “Student”. Note: The “Person type” field must be configured as “required” for this to work.
    • In the RadiosGeneral menu, select Form Validation and check the Required box to require a selection.
  3. Click the “Save conditions” button at the bottom of the page.
    • Now when the form is viewed, the “Student classification” field does not display and is not requried unless the “Person type” selected is “Student”. The default state of the form. Note that the Student classification field does not display.
    • The state of the form when the Person type selected is Student. Note that the Student classification field is displayed and is required.

How To Send An Email When A Form Is Submitted:

Often when a user submits a webform it is desired to send an email notifying someone of the submission or to the user confirming their submission.

To send an email to a specific email address:

  1. Login to the website.
  2. Navigate to the webform.

To send an email to a user-provided email address (e.g. to the user submitting the form):

These types of emails can be used as an open mail relay to send an email to any email address.

This vulnerability is mitigated if the site owner's email address is also receiving a notification email, which should alert the site owner to the exploitation. If the site owner's mailbox is not monitored, the open mail relay can be more easily exploited.

In addition to the steps below, we suggest adding the site's email to also receive these emails in order to monitor potential spamming attacks.

NOTE: To send an email to a user, the form must include an E-mail field to collect an email address from the user. For information about adding fields to a webform, please see the support article How to create or edit a webform.

  1. Login to the website.
  2. Navigate to the webform.
  3. Click the Emails/ Handlers link.
  4. Click Edit under the email.
  5. Click the Advanced tab.
  6. Under Additional Settings setup your desired email reply.
  7. Click the Save button at the bottom of the page.

Future Confirmation Settings:

By default after submitting a webform it will return the user to the page where the form was filled out, not the webform entity. A feature in progress will allow custom confirmation/ redirection to a different page if configured.

How To Provide A Custom Confirmation Message Upon Successful Form Submission: 

  • Refer to the above section, “To send an email to a user-provided email address”.

How To Close A Webform:

Closing a form prevents any further submissions by any users.

  1. Login to the website.
  2. Navigate to the webform.
  3. Select the Form tab.
  4. Under Form General Settings change the Form status to closed.
  5. Click Save at the bottom of the page.
