HighQ Forms tips and tricks

Here are some quick tips and tricks that might help you when creating your forms:
  • Copy
    a form style and edit the copy to test and tweak the design without affecting the original version
  • Give each
    style
    a specific, descriptive name so that you can quickly see where it is used
  • Give each
    form
    a specific, descriptive name if you want to use it on multiple sites (names must be unique).
  • Use the
    More action
    option in the section design tab to apply a field size (33%, 50% or 100%) to all fields in a section.
  • Remember to
    Preview
    changes before you make them public
    • Preview will display an example of a published page - not the embed code version.
  • Delete only when necessary - it is not possible to restore deleted items.
  • Use the
    Source
    option in the CK editor to add more advanced design changes
  • If you use a single-line text column to capture email addresses - please enable
    Email validation
    and make the column mandatory.

HighQ Forms and site templating

As of April 2023, HighQ Forms configuration is included in
Site templates
. When you import a site template to a new instance you no longer need to rebuild forms as they are already included.
