Form Editor Guide (Post-Launch Editing)

Once your event goes live, access to the Wiki Form Editor is removed, and form editing is limited to the original Form Editor. These instructions are specifically for that post-launch environment. Before an event is live, Admins have near full control over building and editing their forms — including adding, deleting, and rearranging fields — using the Wiki Form Editor. However, once the event is live, editing capabilities are restricted to modifying the text within existing questions and changing the order of questions. This limitation helps ensure data integrity and prevents accidental loss or disruption of submission data during the active event period.

Accessing the Form Editor

The Submission Builder and Evaluation Builder pages are now consolidated into a single location: the Form Editor page.

To access the Form Editor:

  1. Hover over the Forms (paper icon) in the navigation menu.

  2. Select Forms from the dropdown.


Overview of the Form Editor

For Admins: The Form Editor page allows you to manage settings for both the submission form and evaluation form(s). It’s divided into four main sections:

  • Submission Form

  • Copyable SignupForm Questions

  • Group Categorization

  • Division Categorization

Submission Form

At the top of the page, you’ll see your submission and evaluation forms listed. From here, you can:

  • Edit the text of existing questions

  • Rearrange the order of questions

Editing a Form

  1. Select the Edit (pencil icon) next to the form you want to modify.

  2. To edit a specific question, click the pencil icon next to that question.

Field Editing Options:

  • Prompt Label: Changes the section text visible to submitters.

  • Name: Changes the internal section name (not visible to submitters).

Editing Multiple Choice Options (Dropdown or Radio Button)

While Admins can update the text of answer options, they cannot add or remove options.
To edit existing options:

  • Click the pencil icon next to the answer option

  • Use the arrows or drag-and-drop to reorder options

Rearranging Questions

To reorder questions in your form:

  • Click and hold a question bar

  • Drag it to the new position

  • Release to drop it into place

Most changes are saved automatically when you click "Back" or "Close".
