How do I reactivate a custom field?

I added a custom field then decided I didn't need it so I made it inactive.  Now I want to use it but can't find a way to reactivate it.

How do I reactivate a custom field?

Hello, @nwoodshed12.

 

If you want to add the customized field again to your forms, you can do this by customizing the template you're using.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Gear icon, then select Custom Form Styles under Your Company.
  2. Look for the template, then click on the drop-down arrow under Action.
  3. Tap on Content, then tap the Header section of the Preview page.
  4. Scroll down, then click on +Custom field.
  5. Check the field from there, put a check-mark beside it add it to your template. You can also add a new field on the box provided.
  6. Hit Done to save the changes.
