Choose Form Field Types

Compare Smart Form Builder's Standard Fields, Advanced Fields, and Structure items to choose the right input or layout element for your form.

Choose a field based on the kind of information visitors need to enter or select. Smart Form Builder groups its built-in fields into Standard Fields, Advanced Fields, and Structure. The fields available on your site can also depend on the plugin’s field settings and extensions.

Standard Fields

  • Text Field: short free-form text.
  • Email Field: an email address.
  • Number: a numeric value with optional minimum and maximum values.
  • Textarea: a multi-line response.
  • Select Dropdown: one or multiple choices from a configured list.
  • Checkbox Group: choices that visitors can select together.
  • Radio Button: a choice field configured with options.
  • Name Field: a visitor’s name.
  • Address Field: an address.
  • Phone Field: a phone number, with optional country-code controls.
  • Date Field and Time Field: date or time input.
  • Button: a form action button.
  • Hidden Field: a submitted value without a visible input.

Advanced Fields

  • URL Field: a website address.
  • File Upload: a file supplied by the visitor.
  • Captcha: a configured CAPTCHA integration.
  • GDPR Consent: a consent checkbox with consent text and a privacy-policy URL.
  • HTML: custom HTML content in the form.
  • Mask Field: an input with a predefined or custom format.
  • Range Slider: a value selected along a range.
  • Step Break: separates a form into steps.

Structure

  • Row: a layout container for arranging fields into columns.
  • Section Break: separates a form into sections and can display a section title and description.

Add the field that fits your form

  1. Open the form editor and locate the field picker.
  2. Browse the relevant field category and choose the field type.
  3. Add it to the canvas, then select it to review its available settings.
  4. Configure the label, options, or validation settings that apply to that field type.
  5. Save the form and preview the result before publishing.

Controls differ by field type. For example, Text Field includes character-length settings, Number includes numeric limits, and Mask Field has a separate Mask Settings section. See Configure Form Field Labels and Configure Form Validation Rules for those tasks.
