Favorite Fields

Fields that you have customized can be saved as a Favorite Field so that you can reuse them later. Favorite Fields can be used as many times as you like on the same form. They will also be available to use on any form, both those you’ve already created or will create in the future. You can even export and import them to other websites.

Saving a field as a Favorite Field

Once you’ve customized a field just the way you want it, just click the star icon next to the field’s field type name. The below example is a Single Line Text field with a custom label: Name.

A confirmation window will open. Click Add to save the field. Note that the star won’t change colors, but the field will be saved.

Adding a Favorite Field to a form

Once a field has been saved as a Favorite Field, it will be available at the top of the Add New Field drawer in every form on your site.
