Container

Sat, 13 Dec 2025 10:52:25 -0600

The foundation of every FreshForms setup. This macro acts as the wrapper that contains all field elements.

Why it’s useful: Keeps your form organized in one place, making it easier to manage, style, and display results.

Checkbox

Sat, 13 Dec 2025 10:52:25 -0600

Use Checkboxes when you want users to choose one or more items from a list. This field allows for multi-select input, making it ideal for things like selecting skills, equipment, or preferences where more than one choice may apply.

Conditional Field

Sat, 13 Dec 2025 10:52:25 -0600

The Conditional Macro allows you to display or hide form fields based on specific conditions. This is helpful for making your forms dynamic, showing only relevant fields depending on previous user input.

Date Field

Sat, 13 Dec 2025 10:52:25 -0600

The Date Field adds structure and accuracy to form submissions. By using a consistent date format, it eliminates ambiguity and simplifies downstream automation, filtering, and reporting.

Dropdown

Sat, 13 Dec 2025 10:52:25 -0600

The Dropdown Field allows users to choose from a predefined list of options — ideal for limiting inputs to a specific set of values. Use this when you want consistency in responses, such as selecting departments, leave types, or session topics.

File Attachments

Sat, 13 Dec 2025 10:52:25 -0600

Let users upload files directly through the form — whether it’s resumes, ID cards, screenshots, signed PDFs, or other documentation. These files are stored with the form submission and can be downloaded from the results table.

Radio Options

Sat, 13 Dec 2025 10:52:25 -0600

Use Radio Options when you want users to choose exactly one item from a short, predefined list. This field displays all options visibly as buttons, making it easier to see all choices at once — great for quick decision-making.

Results

Sat, 13 Dec 2025 10:52:25 -0600

Display and manage form submissions in an easy-to-read table format. The Results Table enables you to review, edit, delete, and interact with form data, providing flexibility for managing submissions. You can also filter data and download attached files.

Status Field

Sat, 13 Dec 2025 10:52:25 -0600

The Status Field lets you track form progress using clearly labeled color-coded badges. Ideal for workflows like approvals, issue tracking, or project phases. Each status shows as a tag with a label you define, plus a color you select.
