Adding and Removing Fields in a Form - WUI

How to Hide or Add Form Fields in the Web App and Save the Settings for Yourself or for Everyone

Written by Petr Pech

Every form has preset fields that are displayed when you create a new record. These may not suit everyone, so you can hide some fields and add others.


Opening the field settings

In the form, click the gear icon Form field settings in the upper-right corner.


Showing and hiding fields

The Form settings panel opens on the right. The fields are divided into two tabs:

  • Displayed: fields that the form currently shows,

  • Hidden: fields that you can add to the form.

To hide or show a field, click the eye icon to the right of its name. To find a specific field quickly, use the Search fields… box above the tabs.

On the Hidden tab, select the fields you want to add and confirm the changes by clicking the Apply button. To undo changes to the settings, use the arrow to the left of the button.

Optional fields are usually displayed in the form under the More options section, below the basic information.


Saving the settings

The arrow next to the Apply button offers options for how to save the settings:

  • Apply: the change applies to the current form,

  • Save as default for me: the form will be displayed this way for you next time as well,

  • Save as default for everyone: the settings will be applied for all users.

ℹ️ At the top of the panel, you can switch between saved form variants and change the Form layout. For details, see the article Form settings.
