    I am creating a new photography contest. Can I just edit my last photography contest form that has ended? Or do I need to create a new form?

    Hi Jeanne,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. If you will make some changes to an old form like deleting fields, please note that all submissions associated with the form will also be affected. The data collected on that deleted field will also be deleted. Instead, I would suggest cloning the old form. Let me walk you through it:

    1. Go to your My Forms page.
    2. Search and hover or click the form you wish to clone/copy.
    3. Expand its More menu.
    4. Click the Clone option under the Form column.

    You should be redirected to the form builder with cloned form.

    Give it a try and let us know if you need any more help.
