Are you sure you want to submit? after pressing submit

    Hello,

    I am looking for a way to ask the person submitting the form "Are you sure you want to submit the form?" after they have pressed "Submit"

    The reason that I want this is because there is a field titled "Form Status". I want the person submitting the form to be 100% certain that this field has the correct status (conditional emails will be set up using this field).

    Is there a way to ask them "Are you sure this field is correct?" AFTER they have hit the "submit" button?

    Our preview before submit widget would allow for the user to review their data prior to actually sending the submission:

    Would this widget allow them to review one field specifically? The form is quite long and I really only need them to review their answer for one field in particular

    Yes you can configure the Preview Before Submit widget to show only those questions/answers you wanted to be shown in the preview page.

    To confirm, would I have to type out every field that I do NOT want showing up on here? That would take a very long time.


    If the answer to that is yes, how to I find out what each field name is?

    Yes, you must type all field labels you do not want showing up.
    These are your field labels.

    A little addition. This widget may show your "Form Status" field in an unobtrusive way.
