Field Options

• Field type: The list of available Field Types
• Field Name: The name of the field, used internally to reference the user's input.
• Description: Definition and general description of the custom field. Will not be displayed.
• Display Order: The order (relative to other fields) in which this field is displayed.
• Caption: The leading question or prologue before the field. If left blank, the Field Name will be displayed as the caption.
• Caption Location: Determines the positioning and visibility of the caption relative to the field. Options include: Left of Field, Above Field, No Caption, Hide Caption. Note: this option was previously called Label Display. (See examples here.)
• Placeholder: Text input here displays within the text box as placeholder text that will disappear once the user clicks into the field to enter content. Note: this function is different from Default Text, as Placeholder text will not create content to be stored within the field.
• Instructions: Text input here displays under the caption. If caption has Hide Caption enabled then any defined instructions will continue to be displayed above the input.
• Button label: Specify a text and or an icon for the file upload button. Will have an adjacent Select Icon button to allow icons to be included on the button.
• Default Text: The default text that will be displayed in the text box.
• Tab Name: Displays the field under a given tab.
• Mandatory: The option appears under general tab to make the field mandatory.
