Are there no other available fields other than the very few quick and basic field. The "other" fields button claimed 380 more

The widgets are also considered as form fields with special functionality. So the name Widgets was renamed as More fields. You can click on Browse Widgets that displays the other widgets.

This is the answer I received to my question about more field. Are ther really only just a few quick and basic field? What happened to the 380 additional fields.  Instead, now we see only a small number of widgets

As already mentioned, you can search for a particular widget from the search box. However, if you want to see all the widgets, you may take a look at our widgets web page.
