  1. Yes! It's kinda janky but it works and I tested it. In your form create a new Text Form Field (the one with the abc rectangle icon or the T icon) and title the field "Subject." Then put in a Placeholder Text of what you want the user to put in this field. Next check the box to make it a Required Field then hit Apply followed by Done. Test it. Please see my attached image for reference. If you change the name of the Text Form Field to anything else but "Subject" it will just be another Text Form Field and nothing will happen. Adding a Description will not affect it either. However if you receive multiple forms with the same Placeholder Text filled in to the "Subject" Text Form Field, it will still be interpreted in conversation view in Gmail. Try to come up with something in either the Description/Instructions for this field or Placeholder Text to keep the "Subject" unique from other forms. Your Gmail Subject line will then come in as "Form Submission - [form name] - [placeholder text of Subject text field] Hope this helps. It was a headache for me too. My site was previously on the 7.0 template and my husband used some CSS/Javascript (forgive me I'm not a web dev) to generate random numbers in the Subject line to make the forms unique. However in 7.1 that feature seems to not be available anymore, or at least not that he could find/figure out.
