I'm using the Jotform website on Brave, and your AI told me to use the 'page break' option when I asked for help. I couldn't find it, and so the AI told me that a divider works the same way. Can't find that either. On many of the website's videos, I see a whole section in the 'basic' category that I don't see on my browser!
I was trying to make a digital escape room originally, where I could have someone answer a question, read a paragraph(NOT type one) and then go back to the question and answer it again, leading to a different paragraph, THEN go to another paragraph after all answer have been entered, and continue with the escape room.
When I was having problems with this, I asked the AI, it told me to use page breaks. When I saw on the videos on the website, I was pretty sure that wasn't what I wanted, at all, considering I was using the 'cards' format anyway so I wouldn't need to break the pages in the first place.
I don't think I'll need page break(although I would like top know why I don't have it), but I still need to know how to make my escape room since I found your AI tremendously unhelpful in my situation.
My greatest thanks.

Hi Dawn Flight,
Thanks for reaching out to us for help. I'm an AI assistant. I'll do my best to help you until someone from the support team is available.
Regarding your question about the 'page break' option, it is available in Jotform's Classic form layout but not in the Cards layout you are using. Cards format shows one question per card, so page breaks are not needed or shown there. This is why you don't see the page break or divider options in your current form builder view.
For your digital escape room idea, since you want to show different paragraphs based on answers and allow going back to previous questions, the Cards format might not fully support that complex branching and navigation as you described.
Here’s how you can approach it:
- Consider switching your form layout to Classic: Classic layout supports page breaks and more flexible navigation between pages.
- Use conditional logic: Set up conditions to show or hide paragraphs and questions based on previous answers to create the escape room flow.
- Use the Page Break element: In Classic layout, add page breaks to separate sections and control the flow of the form.
You can change your form layout by going to the Form Designer (paint roller icon) and selecting Classic form layout.
This setup will give you more control over the flow and allow users to go back and forth as needed for your escape room concept.
Give it a try and let us know how it goes.
Best regards,
Jotform Support

All right, looks like the cards layout was mainly the problem. Thank you GREATLY... I can't believe that the answer was so simple!

Hi Dawn Flight,
I'm glad the explanation helped clarify the issue with the Cards layout. Switching to the Classic layout will indeed give you access to page breaks and more flexible navigation, which is better suited for your digital escape room concept.
If you need any further guidance on setting up conditional logic or using page breaks in Classic layout, feel free to ask.
Thank you for your kind words.
