How to set up a configurable list widget with Jotform

[@auntoque8084]

Hi, I'm trying to create a 3 inputs (columns) list but I want to select the first Input to set its specific width. What can I do?

[@Jotform]

That's possible when you inject custom CSS codes in the Configurable List Widget settings. Please contact us in our Support System through our contact page here www.jotform.com/contact/ so we can help you with CSS codes and assist you further.

Hello, its posible to filtr by name in this widget?

[@Jotform]

Hi @rossmann5390, The configurable list widget doesn't have a filter feature. It is designed to dynamically create fields you've predefined in its settings. If you're referring to filtering submissions data on tables, check out this link for the guide: www.jotform.com/help/1009-how-to-use-different-filters-to-easily-manage-your-data-in-jotform-tables/. If you have more questions, let us know from the Contact Us page at www.jotform.com/contact/. We'll be happy to help.

Good day. Is it possible to populate data from a text file into a jotform widget?

[@Jotform]

Hello Lebo, If you are referring to the Configurable List widget, it doesn't currently support that function. If you can contact us through our support contact form at www.jotform.com/contact/ with more details of this functionality and how you'd want it to work, we would be happy to escalate a feature request for you. We'll look forward to your message.

I wish to add only one column of a text-field to the row. But that field stays very short and doesn't seem to change when editing the CSS. In essence, I wish the singular text-field to be as long as the page allows. How to do that?

[@Jotform]

Hi, It's possible to expand the textbox field in the Config List widget with CSS. First, inject this CSS code into your form [title*="Configurable"] {width: 100% !important;} then this CSS code within the configurable list widget settings under custom CSS tab #list, input{width: 100% !important;}. Demo: form.jotform.com/211578956959074. Alternatively, you may consider using Dynamic Textbox Widget www.jotform.com/widgets/dynamic-textbox. Please contact us at www.jotform.com/contact/ if you need further assistance so we can help.

Hello. Can I change line for example: :checkbox:Escola Dropdown : dropdown : C+S Feira, Escola Global, Aceademia de Cenas, Outra Escola : Outro:text[:placeholder] want to break here :checkbox:Centro de Estudos Dropdown : dropdown :Estudo das Ideias,Saber Virtual,O Mocho,Escola Global,Cercifeira,Notas de Arte,Curious Minds,Sitios do Saber,Outro Centro de Estudo : Outro:text[:placeholder]

[@Jotform]

Hi @alexandralopes9295, Sure, we can help you with that. To add a line break after the 3rd field, inject this CSS code into your Configurable List Widget settings under Custom CSS tab. .configurable-list-field-row > div:nth-child(3) { flex:0 1 33% !important; flex-wrap: wrap; } If you need more help with this, reach out to us through our Support Contact Form at www.jotform.com/contact/. We'll be happy to help.

It would’ve been nice to know the why behind the widget. I was waiting for the end result and the purpose of the widget

[@Jotform]

Configurable List is basically a set of fields in a table layout where your form users can as many rows as they want straight from the form. To learn more about it, please check this widgets page here www.jotform.com/widgets/configurable-list or our guide here www.jotform.com/help/282-how-to-set-up-the-configurable-list-widget. Demo: form.jotform.com/61654821574965

[@KristofferEscareces]

Purpose of the widget: Configurable List is dynamic. One example is when the users try to list out the names of their beneficiaries in the form. Not everyone has the same number of beneficiaries.

[@ghaithsys]

what if I want to add phone number ?

[@Jotform]

Hi @user-qn8ez4kv2p, The Configurable List widget doesn't currently have a Phone input type. As a workaround, you can use a Text input type to ask for a phone number. You can also check this guide about how to set up the Configurable List widget. This also shows the available input type it offers www.jotform.com/help/282-how-to-set-up-the-configurable-list-widget/. Let us know if you have more questions from the Contact Us page at www.jotform.com/contact/. We'll be happy to help.

[@leventehopton9332]

I find it rude how you have deleted my comment twice regarding the issue of exporting the data from a configurable list. All data is pushed into a single cell on a CSV/ Excel or google sheet export / integration. Can you show a workaround or give use options to change this. People have been asking for this feature dating back 5 years if you look at any search results for this issue.

[@Jotform]

Hello Levente, We are not quite sure which comments you're referring but we can assure you that we do not delete comments with legit questions. Anyway, we do not have an update about this until this time but it has still been taken into consideration it was just not prioritize at the moment. If you have a feature request about this too, please send it to us through our support contact form here www.jotform.com/contact/ so we can open a feature request for you. Anyway, there's a workaround in Excel where you can convert multi-line cell data into different columns/rows. Here's a short video that will help link.jotform.com/gpuWcE52Q1. Let us know if you have more questions. Thanks!

@@Jotform is there any work-around about exporting the data from a configurable list ??

[@jonathanacero3506]

Hello, I am trying to add a configurable list to an autoreply email but this widget is not available in the Form Fields of the email. What can i do?

[@Jotform]

Hi Jonathan, If the Configuration List widget exists in your form, you should be able to select it from the Form Fields. Make sure your configurable list widget has a field label so it's clearly visible on the Form Fields list. Please contact us at www.jotform.com/contact/ if you need further assistance.

Must say your agents are really really bad. A girl call larissa, i ask her help and she send me this border-shadow: none Nothing more So I ask for another agent help and gave her the reaview she deserve and she block my IP. Nobody say any bad word or be insultuoso. I been work in the forms for a week and because i gave the fair review they block my IP. What is this? A joke? This agent should be fired, not only for the bad work supporting but because she didnt accept the review and probably to hide the review block my ID. I like to know who will be responsable for this action. She didnt block my user email she black all IP to have shure nobody tell what she did. The block system talk about pishing! There is n pishing just bad support! I disnt insult her! I did not talk to her more! just ask to end the chat and give her a review! How is this possible!? I been work in the forms for a week!!!!!!

PLEASE ADD AUTOCOMPLETE TO THIS, my dropdown list has 300 OPTIONS!!!! and the autocomplete widget Doesnt add new rows, SO WHA DO I DO?????? N

[@Jotform]

Hi @jesuseduardobittersuarez7517, The Configurable List widget does not currently support autocomplete function, but we have a separate widget called Autocomplete that you can add in your form. The Autocomplete widget supports a maximum of 65,535 characters, so adding 300 options won't be a problem. You can also insert options separated by a line break aside from the bar symbol. Give it a try and let us know from the Contact Us page at www.jotform.com/contact/ if you encounter an issue. We'll be happy to help.

[@JBittermusic]

Thank you but I need to add another row to declare another product and another, the autocomplet is just a line, and a need several
