Price Subtotal Field

The Price Subtotal field allows you to show subtotals for any price fields when combined with a quantity field. You can create a cart-like line entry, as shown in the diagram below.

Basic

The basic tab contains settings that the majority of WS Form users will need to control a field. The settings are as follows:

Label

This is the label shown alongside the field. As well as entering a label into this field, you can also double click the label of the field in the editor. You should enter an easy-to-understand label for your field, for example, Price Subtotal.

Show Label

If enabled the label will be shown on your form. If you do not want the label to appear for a particular field, uncheck this box.

Hidden

If checked the field will be hidden on the form. It can be shown again using conditional logic or your own JavaScript.

Text Align

This setting determines how the price will be aligned in the field. This defaults to Right for ease of reading but you can change it to different justifications.

Related Price Field

Quantity fields enable a quantity to be specified for a price field. For example, you could allow someone to order more than one T-shirt by entering how many they would like in the quantity field.

You can add a quantity field anywhere on your form. Once added, click the settings icon and then select which price field the quantity field relates to. If you do not enter a related price field, a red caution icon will appear on your form and also in the settings sidebar to prompt you to do so.

You can use a price subtotal field to show the calculated amount.

Allow Negative Value

If negative amounts are permitted in this field, check this box.

Prefix / Suffix

The prefix and suffix settings allow you to add a prefix box and/or suffix box to the field.

WS Form - Prefix / Suffix

For example, you could add a unit of measure as a suffix, or an @ symbol as a prefix.

Accessibility

ARIA Label

Accessible Rich Internet Applications (ARIA) defines ways to make web content and web applications more accessible to people with disabilities.

This setting enables you to define what text is made available to ARIA applications. This would, for example, provide a screen reader with specific text to read to someone with a disability.

The value of this setting defaults to your field label. If you would like to change this, enter a new value.

WS Form variables can be entered into this field.

Exclusions

Exclude From Emails

By default, WS Form uses the #email_submission variable in email templates. This provides a simple way of displaying all of the submitted fields in emails. Sometimes there might be a need to exclude a field from an email, for example, you might want to not include some introductory copy on a form, or hide a field you’re using with conditional logic to show or hide an element.

To hide a field from emails, check this box.

Other WS Form integrations may add exclusions in this section too, such as the WooCommerce integration which allows you to exclude certain fields from the cart entries.

Hidden Behavior

These settings allow you to change the behavior of a field if the hidden setting is checked (See above), or if you set a field as hidden using conditional logic.

Always Include in Actions

The normal behavior for a field that has been hidden is that it will not be included if an action has a Clear Hidden Fields setting enabled. For example, if you have a Send Email action, WS Form will not include fields that are hidden.

If this setting is checked, this field will always be included in actions if it is hidden.
