The save button allows a website visitor to save the progress of their form and come back at a later date to complete the form. The Save to Submissions action needs to be active on the form with the Save event enabled.

The actions that run when the Save button is clicked are all configured in the Actions side bar. To access this, click the Actions icon at the top of the page.

WS Form - Field Settings Icon

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 label is used to identify the save button in the WS Form form builder.

Hidden

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

Help Text

The help text setting enables you to add smaller text under the field to assist the website visitor in completing that field.

As well as inserting plain text into this field, WS Form also provides extensive functionality for adding character and word count information. Click here to learn more about this functionality.

WS Form variables can be entered into this field.

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.

Advanced

The advanced tab contains additional form attribute settings that provide further control over how a field is rendered.

Styles

Use the Styles settings to change the design of the save button.

Vertical Alignment

The vertical alignment option allows you to choose how this field will be vertically aligned in relation to fields in the same row. The options are:

The type option allows you to choose how this button is styled. The options are:

  • Default

Classes

For developers WS Form allows you to add your own classes to fields.

Field Wrapper

The wrapper CSS class setting enables you to add a class (or classes) to a field wrapper. Field wrappers are sections of HTML added around a field to position them on the page. To add multiple classes, add a space between the class names.

To add a class to the actual field element itself, enter a class (or classes) to this setting. To add multiple classes, add a space between the class names.

Restrictions

Field restrictions enable you to define what can or cannot be entered into the field.

If checked the field will be disabled, and it cannot be interacted with. You can re-enable a field dynamically by using conditional logic.

User Status

Choose from one of the options to filter which user status can see this field:

  • Any
  • Is Logged In
  • Is Logged Out
  • Has User Role or Capability

If you choose Has User Role or Capability, additional settings will appear that enable you to choose one or more roles or capabilities.

To add a custom attributes key value pair:

  1. Click the Add  icon to add a custom attribute row.
  2. Enter the key in the left column.
  3. Enter the value in the right column.
  4. Click Save to save the custom attributes.
