    Hi, 


    My hidden fields are showing up when users use the edit link to go back and revise submissions. Can you assist please?

    I can see that the fields that are set to be hidden in the field's properties are being shown on form edit.

    As a workaround, you can hide the fields by injecting the following Custom CSS to your form.

    #id_38,
    #id_43,
    #id_46,
    #id_40,
    #id_44,
    #id_47,
    #id_41,
    #id_45,
    #id_48,
    #id_42 {
      display: none;
    }

    Hi @nickjacobs12,

    The hidden fields will be shown in Edit Mode only if you are logged in to your JotForm account.

    The hidden fields will not be shown to the other users in edit mode.

    Please let us know if you need further assistance.
