Tiny Forms also offers a range of advanced settings to enable you to customize your forms for a variety of needs.

1. Form Settings

It is the first tab of the Form Settings and is displayed by default. From here you can set up:

• Form Name: Displayed on the application administration pages and as the title of the form public page.
• Slug: This option allows you to customize your forms URLs. By default, slugs are created based on the name of the Form, but you can edit it here.
• Status: Indicates if the form is being shown. If set to Off, the form is no longer displayed to the user and instead appears a message indicating that the form is disabled and does not accept more submissions.
• Created by: Field available only for administrator users. Used to assign a form to a different advanced user.
• Language: This language will be used to display form messages. For example, validation errors. Note that you can add another language to the application.
• Text Direction: Allows you to set the direction in which the values appear in the form. By default, the text direction is Left to Right (LTR). But, you can change the text direction from Right to Left (RTL) from the dropdown.
• Private: Only logged-in users with the right permissions can access the Form page or Form Widget. If this option is enable, anonymous users will be redirected to the login page and users without permissions will be redirected to the Form Management page.
• Message: Sets the message to be displayed to the user when the form has been disabled (Off).
• Shared With: This feature allows you to share the form with other users. You have three options:
• None: The form will only be visible by its creator (without considering the administrator who can see all the forms).
• Everyone: The form will be visible by all users of the application. Only managers can share forms with everyone.
• Specific users: Allows you to select the users who will be able to see the form. Related permissions: Includes the word "Shared" in his name. For example, viewSharedForms, editSharedForms, deleteSharedForms.

Important!

• Generate Submission Number: This option allows you to set a custom sequential submission numbering for your form. The submission number will be increased by 1 always. Except, if you set a bigger number in form settings (In this case, we are going to use this number). So, only when the number is bigger than the submission number of the previous entry we are going to use it to prevent duplicates. Take into consideration that the Submission Number helps you to identify a Submission in your Form, but a Submission ID helps you to find a Submission in the entire application. Two different forms can have the same Submission Number, but never the same Submission ID.
• Number Width: Set the minimum width of number without a prefix (zeros will be added to the left side). This will change the minimum width of the submission number for new submissions. E.g. set to 5 to have submission number displayed as 00001 instead of 1. Leave empty to disable.
• Number Prefix: Prefix before submission number (optional). This will change the prefixes for new numbers.
• Number Suffix: Suffix after submission number (optional). This will change the suffixes for new numbers.
• Save DB: Indicates if form submissions must be stored in the database or not. In any case, this does not affect each emailing entry.
• Owner Scope: When this option is active, only the Form Managers can manage all the Submissions. The rest of the users who have access to the Submission Manager, will only be able to manage their own submissions.
• Protected Files: When this option is active, only Logged-In users with Form access can access or download the files.
• Time Zone For Submissions: When this option is enabled, the submission date will use this timezone, instead the user account timezone.
• Date Format: When this option is enabled, the submission date will use this date format, instead the application date format.
• Editable: When this option is active, form submissions can be edited by anonymous users by using the Form Widget. So, you will be able to allow your users edit form entries from your own website.
• During: It must be a number, for example: 1. This number defines the amount of time a user can edit a submission.
• Unit of Time: It can be Hours, Days, Weeks, Months or Years. This allows you to define exactly the time you can allow the edition. Eg. 1 hour or 1 day.
• If the Submission meets: Only Form Submissions that pass this condition can be edited. This allows us to enable/disable the edition depending on the value of form fields.
• Limit total number of submission: Specify the maximum number of submissions that the form will accept in a period.
• Action: The action to be executed when a form has reached its limit. It can be: Show error message (By default) and Show error message and Disable Form (This action is only available when "Per Time Period" is "All Time").
• Total Number: Total number of submissions to be accepted.
• Per Time Period: Period in which the number of submission will be counted.
• Limit submissions per User: Sets the maximum number of submissions that the Form can receive from the same user in a period.
• Limit By: There are four options: IP Address, Browser Fingerprint, IP Address or Browser Fingerprint and IP Address and Browser Fingerprint. Use Browser Fingerprint when you disable IP Tracking or when you are running Tiny Forms in an intranet and want to limit the entries.
• Max Number: Maximum number of submissions allowed.
• Per Time Period: Period in which the number of submissions will be counted.
• Schedule Form Activity: Set the start an end date in which the Form must be enabled (ON) Before and after it, the form will be automatically disabled.
• Start Date: Select the date on which the form will be activated.
• End Date: Select the date on which the form will be deactivated.
• Use password: Enable or disable the form protection by using password. If the option has been enabled, you should fill the Password field. Otherwise, the form will not be saved and instead, a validation error will be displayed. By default, this setting is OFF.
• Spam filter: Indicates if the form should use the honeypot technique to filter submissions made by real users from the ones made by bots (spam).
• Authorized URLs: To prevent a third party from embedding your Form on their own website, your form can be restricted to a list of URLs that you authorize.
• URLs: The domain names where the form can be embedded.
• Hide Form: This option let you to hide the form in unauthorized urls.
• Unauthorized Url Message: Enter a custom error message to be displayed when the form widget is embedded in an unauthorized domain.
• No validate: This option allows you to disable the Client-Side validation (by the browser). Take into account that the Server-Side validation won't be disabled. It's recommended to have this option in Off.
• IP Tracking: When this option has been enabled, IP addresses won't be collected by the application. You can enable the Browser Geo-location to collect the Sender information with consent.
• Analytics: Enable/disable monitoring the form by the application. When, IP Tracking has been disabled, Form Stats will be collected with IP anonymization.
• Autocomplete: Enables the browser's autocomplete to forms that have been previously filled. By default, this setting is ON.
• Save & Resume later: When this option has been enabled, the browser automatically will store the information entered by a user on each field to be resumed later, even if the user close the browser.

2. Confirmation Settings

This tab allows you to configure four key aspects of the submission confirmation:

1. Inform to the user immediately: Whether using a text message (alone or above the form) or redirect the user to another web page. In the first case, you must type the message to display and in the second, the full URL of the web.
2. If you'd like to make the message more personal, you can insert field variables (placeholders) into a confirmation message or confirmation URL, in similar way as a confirmation message by email. Once the form has been submitted, the placeholder will be replaced with the information placed in that field. For more details, go to the 'Customizing the message' documentation.
3. To Redirect the browser to another page, you can set up 3 additional parameters
4. Show Message and Redirect After: Here you can enter a number of seconds to start the redirection.
5. Append Submission Data to URL: This is useful for small forms when you want to append all the collected data to the URL. Eg. https://www.example.com/thanks.html?text_0=John&email_0=john@doe.com
6. Replace Field Name with Field Alias when it's available: If this option has been enabled, the collected data will be appended using the Field Alias. Eg. https://www.example.com/thanks.html?name=John&email=john@doe.com
7. Conditional Logic With this tool you can customize the way that you handle and process your submissions, giving you more control once a user has submitted your form. A common example of this would be if you wanted to provide your end users the option to download a file. In this scenario you can redirect to the file to start the download process. But, if the user don't want to get the file, we will show the Thank You message.
8. Send confirmation email to the user: If you select this option, each time a user submit a form will receive an email that will thank him.
9. Double Opt-In You can enable the double opt-in feature to confirm your form submission. Then you can use the placeholder: {{optin_link}} to present the link to the Opt-In Confirmation Page. When the end-user clicks this link can be redirected to another web page or see a custom Thank You message.

3. Notification Settings

In this tab you can configure how Form Submissions will be sent to your email (All data, only a link to the data or a custom message). Additionally, you can set the email subject, email addresses and more.

Four things to keep in mind:

1. If the form has fields of "Email" type, you can select them as Send To and/or Reply To email address.
2. If the form has fields of "File" type, you can attach uploaded files to emails.
3. If you choose only Plain Text, a default message with all the submitted data will be sent in plain text.

You can choose the event when the email notification will be sent:

• Email is verified by double opt-in
• Form is submitted (New Entry)
• Form is submitted (Edit Entry)
• Submission is created
• Submission is updated

4. UI Settings

UI = User Interface.

From here you can modify the form appearance: The design by using themes, and the functionality by using an external JavaScript file.

1. Javascript UI Widgets: Select a UI Widget or Enter the full URL of the JavaScript file that will be loaded with your form. By default, the jQuery library is available for you to make use of it when interacting with the form.
2. Select a Theme: You can select the theme that best fits your form or one you have created yourself. When you select a theme from the list, the form will be automatically displayed with the design chosen theme. You can change the themes over and over again to see differences.
