Form Elements

Form elements in the Form Designer appear in element groups. Element groups appear under Add fields. Element groups contain elements that become one or more fields on a web page. For example, the first name element appears as a single field on a web page. The address element appears as multiple fields on a web page to collect all address information.

Tip: Required elements are bold. Element groups that contain one or more required elements are also bold.

To view elements for an element group, select the group under Form elements. The groups and elements depend on the form type. For example, you do not see communication preference element groups when the form type is Profile Update Form. When you hover over an element group or element, a short description appears in a help window.

Form elements also contain attribute elements. You create attributes in Blackbaud CRM. To view attribute elements in Forms, you need to include them in Administration. For more information, see Settings.
