If you want to prevent form submission under specific conditions, you can hide the submit button using multi-step forms combined with conditional logic.
This approach gives you more control over when the submit button should appear, making it ideal for situations where the user needs to meet certain criteria before submitting.
📝 Additional insights:
This method of hiding the submit button is a great way to control user interaction with your form. If you're looking for even more ways to customize your form's submission behavior, check out our article on How to hide the submit button on your form. There, we dive into how to create display-only pages where submission is not required, perfect for situations where you want to showcase content without interaction.
Follow these steps to hide the submit button based on answers:
Step 1: Create a Multi-Step form
Start by creating a multi-step form. This type of form breaks your content into multiple pages, allowing you to control the flow of questions more effectively.
Step 2: Insert a content field as a checkpoint
Place a Content field in the middle of your questions to act as a checkpoint. This field will serve as a placeholder to manage the flow and prevent the user from submitting prematurely.
Set up conditional logic:
Now, define a conditional logic rule. For example, you can set a rule like:
If the answer to a specific question is X, then jump back to question 1 (or another designated question).
This rule creates a loop, ensuring that users cannot submit the form unless they provide the correct response, based on your criteria.
📝 Note: Be careful where you place the Content field. If it’s placed at the end of the form, it could inadvertently trigger the submission action.
