    I copied or cloned the widget as the first field of https://www.jotform.com/build/203397985927172 and configured it to allow a single field / single entry per submission. There are some data already populating the field list. How do you clear or reset the data to a null value in the widget? For instance if we were copying the form to reuse for a new group, we would NOT want the legacy values to carry over to the new instance of the form. We want to force the first submitter to add their name and so on with each new submitter. Submitters will reuse the form and they will ideally select their own names previous entered.answers Screenshot 10

    The items in the dropdown list persist in a cloned form. They need to be initialized in athe cloned form. How can this be accomplished?

    I am not sure if I have understood your question correctly. Do you mean to say that when you clone your form, it shows some data already prepopulated?

    I would suggest you to please share a screenshot of the issue, and we will take a look. The following guide should help you how to upload the image in forum post: https://www.jotform.com/help/438-how-to-post-screenshots-to-our-support-forum

    We will wait for your response.

    Please note that the dropdown you see when you start typing in the form field is not a form feature. It loads the data from your browser cookies.

    You can clear your browser cache and cookies to clear the saved autocomplete data in browser. The following guide should help you how to clear your browser cache: http://www.wikihow.com/Clear-Your-Browser's-Cache

    You can also disable the setting in the browser and the following guide should help you: https://support.iclasspro.com/hc/en-us/articles/218569268-How-Do-I-Disable-or-Clear-AutoFill-AutoComplete-Information-
