Condition not working to prevent submission based on user's answer.

    I am trying to set up a condition whereby if the user completing the form declines our data protection statement, they are directed to a specific message and unable to complete the rest of the form. At present, it doesn't and allows them to continue and submit the form.

    I did check your last edited form and it seems you have added condition to show the message if the data protection is disagreed. I believe the condition to show hide fields are working as expected but the issue is that users are still able to submit form. Is that correct?

    You can add condition in form to disable submit if data protection is disagreed. Please check the screenshot below on how to add conditions:

    Please take a look at the following cloned form and see if that works as expected: https://www.jotform.com/200584332444955 

    Feel free to clone this form for a closer look. The following guide should help you in form cloning: https://www.jotform.com/help/42-How-to-Clone-an-Existing-Form-from-a-URL

    Thanks for getting back to me. I do not want to disable the submit but rather direct them to a statement which is hidden e.g. if they decline the data protection statement, they will be directed to the 'You have selected not to agree to our data protection statement. All information entered into this form will be disregarded'.

    I have tried to set up a 'show/hide field' condition which isn't working and also a 'skip to/hide a page' condition but again, doesn't work.
