Form Builder - publish only certain form fields online?

[garof]

I'm wondering, what if you create 2 views: one with the fields that you want the others to fill-in and another, where all fields are available. Then, in the Publish window, select the former and publish it at a location that your website visitors can access.

If you want, you can publish the other view, too, at a location that you will use for yourself. Alternatively, you can use the view that you want from the Forms>Views menu.

Good luck,

Is it possible to only publish certain form fields online in a contact form? I would like to make a contact form that visitors to my website can fill in, and that besides these filled in ‘fields’ there are still other fields that I can fill in later. For example:

Name: (filled in by visitor of website)
Addres: (filled in by visitor of website)
Technical problem: (filled in by visitor of website)
======
Technical Solution (not visible for visitor of website, filled in by me) etc.

If I publish the form, the visitor sees automatically also the field “Technical Solution” and I would like it to be ‘hidden’/ not visible on the contact form, but still available in the form itself, so I could fill in the technical solution later.

I found the option: Forms > Views > Fields > Editable, and if I deselect the field “Technical Solution” it indeed doesn’t show up in the contact form anymore (as I wish), but in that case I also can’t edit it myself anymore (to fill in the technical solution).

I was thinking maybe to make this field ‘not editable’ and change later the name of the form in Mysql where the data is stored, hoping that in that case the contact form on the website isn’t showing the field “Technical Solution”, but, once the database is changed I could still fill it in later myself. But I was wandering if there is a more easy and practical solution for this. Changing database names is always risky…

Thnks for any help!
