Hide form fields

Hide fields from customers while still collecting information supplied through prefilling.

What are hidden fields?

A hidden field remains part of your form but is not normally visible to customers. It can still collect a value supplied through a default value or URL parameter.

For example, if you already know a customer’s name, you can prefill and hide the Name field so they do not need to enter it again.

Hide a field

  1. Open the page you want to edit.
  2. Select Form fields in the sidebar.
  3. Click the field you want to hide.
  4. Open Additional settings.
  5. Enable Hide field.
  6. Click Save.

To supply a value using Default value or URL parameters, see Prefill form fields.

Why is a hidden field still visible?

A hidden field appears when the customer needs to complete or correct it:

  • A required field has not been prefilled. Customers must provide the missing information before continuing.
  • A prefilled email address is invalid. Customers must correct the email address before continuing.

If a field appears unexpectedly, check its Required setting and the value being supplied. If you are prefilling through a URL, check that the parameter matches the field’s Reference.
