Submit form based on selection

    Hi, I am trying to find out if there is a functionality in Jotform that if the user selects an option, it will select and submit the form?

    Meaning, the submit button will not be on the form, each selection will submit the form.

    Hi pslcommunications, 

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Do you mean you want to hide the Submit button until the user completes a question? Hiding the Submit button until after someone completes a question is easy. We’ll just need to add Conditional Logic to your form. Let me show you how:

    1. Open your form in Form Builder, and in the orange navigation bar at the top of the screen, click on Settings.
    2. Under the Conditions tab, click on Add a New Condition.
    3. Select Show/Hide Field, enter the Conditions below, and then click on Save:

    IF: Question

    STATE: Empty

    DO: Hide

    FIELD: Submit

    Check out this article about Smart Forms for more ideas about setting up Conditional Logic.

    There are a lot of customizations you could do with this feature so give it a try and let us know if you need any other help.

    Not hide/show condition.

    I would like an answer to trigger to submit the form.

    In example, if I ask for someone to select a color in a single option question, once they click an answer I would the form to autosubmit so they dont have to click on the answer and then click submit.

    Hi pslcommunications,

    Unfortunately, the feature to make an Auto Submit based on user's answer is not yet available. While the feature you're looking for isn't available at Jotform right now, we've gone ahead and escalated your request to our developers. Exactly when or if it's developed depends on their workload, how viable it is, and how many other users also request it. If there are any updates, we’ll circle back to this thread and let you know.

    Thanks for your patience and understanding, we appreciate it.
