    Hi, i have a table that was created and one of the columns is set to be a shortcut to a form, but the shortcut is not showing as a hyperlink so i can click it and it automatically takes me to the form. Is there a way to change this so it shows up as a hyperlink?


    Thanks

    Hi Tyler,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. I'm sorry if you're having difficulties with this. Based on your screenshot, the link is inside a Long Text field. But in case I'm wrong, can you send us the URL link to your form so we can further investigate this? This guide will show you how to do that.

    By the way, I've tested this on my form, and it seems that links that are inputted as the default value in the Long Text field are not being hyperlinked on the Tables. As a workaround for this, you can use the Short Text field. Here's how to add the Short Text Field to your form:

    1. In Form Builder, click on the Add Form Element on the left.
    2. Scroll down to Basic Elements and add the Short Text.

    Hi again Tyler,

    As additional information, in case you're indeed using the Long Text field, you can also change the Editor Mode to Rich Text. This should change the submission data on your table to be hyperlinked. Let me walk you through it:

    1. In Form Builder, select your Long Text field and click on the gear icon.
    2. Go to the Options tab.
    3. Under Editor Mode, change it to Rich Text.
