Text Editor Field

The Text Editor field is  used to output text on your form. Text is entered using the standard WordPress visual editor, which means you can apply formatting to the text such as bold, italics, and underline.

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

The label is used solely for identifying the text editor field when editing your form. The label is not shown to the website visitor.

Hidden

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

Content

Enter the text you want to display into this WordPress visual editor.

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.
