DevonHarris Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 Hello, I'm presenting to a client next week- they are hoping to use forms to increase the efficiency of some of their workflow. Basically, the form would be built with the following fields: -student name -(student email address would then appear automatically with logic) -more info, then submit. the submissions need to be sent to the student's email address which appears when selected, rather than a dump into one account. Is there a way to use this logic? Thank you so much!!! Beyondspace 1 Link to comment
DevonHarris Posted March 27, 2021 Author Share Posted March 27, 2021 @paul2009 do you know if SS has updated their conditional logic? This is for a school and the teachers need to send daily reports to the parents- the goal is for them to fill out a form for each member of the class, and have the data from the form sent to the parents.

I'm not sure which conditional logic you are referring to. Squarespace forms are pretty basic. Can you elaborate? About: SQSP User for 17 yrs. Circle Leader since 2017.

DevonHarris Posted March 27, 2021 Author Share Posted March 27, 2021 @paul2009 like if/then rules for the forms. Hot form does this pretty well but I’d prefer not to have the client pay for another subscription off-site. So basically, the logic would be rules that state: 1. IF Callan’s name is selected, THEN his email address will appear and 2. IF Callan’s name/email are selected THEN the submission is sent to Callan’s email. would love to hear that squarespace’s form capacities have updated over the years, but I can’t figure out how to create a conditional logic beyond a simple yes/no radio button 😞 Beyondspace 1 Link to comment
paul2009 Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 @DevonHarris I'm sorry to tell you that Squarespace forms are the same as they were in 2007. They don't have any conditional logic. 😢 You would need to use a third party forms service. About: SQSP User for 17 yrs. Circle Leader since 2017.

creedon Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 (edited) If a third party solution can't be found I think all the pieces are available to build a custom one using SS forms. It wouldn't be easy but I think it could be done. The two main pieces are the form autocomplete and routing the submitted form to the students email address.
