How to manage your form fields

123FormBuilder is a powerful tool that helps you create online forms within minutes with a simple drag and drop interface. Dragging fields into your form saves you a lot of time and stress.

Adding, moving and grouping fields could not be easier.

How to add a field

After you have signed up for an account, click the New Form button to start creating your form. Choose a form template to customize it, or start with a blank form.

In the left sidebar, you can find all the configurations that you can apply to your form, showcased with their corresponding image icon. On hover, each icon has a tooltip that expresses its associated section. Therefore, you can easily switch between sections to configure your form.

There are seven groups of fields: Essentials, Contact details, Media & Structure, Uploads & Consent, Date & time, Rating scales, Calculations. 123FormBuilder incorporates the drag & drop functionality in real-time.

To add a field, you can simply click on the desired field or press and hold down the left mouse button to grab it. While grabbing it, move the mouse to place it on the form.

How to move a field

By default, a newly added field will be placed at the end of the form. If you want to move it around, you can simply drag & drop it where you want to.

How to move a group of fields

Let’s say you have a multipage form and you want to move fields from the first page to the second page. Instead of dragging fields one by one, you can group fields.

Group them by holding down the CTRL or SHIFT key as you continue clicking on multiple fields.

On the left side of your screen, a counter is displayed to indicate the number of fields selected.

The counter and the first field are shown when moving the group of fields as well.
