Is there a way to avoid notification email to be sent when the submissions are edited?

    Thank you for your response.
    Also, if I want to edit my submissions, is there a way to avoid another
    notification being sent out to the people I have created conditions to be
    emailed when their name from the drop down menu is selected?
    I've created conditions for all these people to be emailed in different
    departments and don't want to have to delete the notification while I make
    edits and clean up my database---and then have to put the conditions back
    in.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello Chastity,

    There are two possible way to achieve your requirement:

    #1. You should replace your notification email alert with "Form Autoresponder" email alert. Please be noted that "Form Autoresponder" can only be triggered when the form is submitted first time. "Form Autoresponder" will not be triggered when the submission is edited.

    #2. If you do not like the first option then second option is to add a hidden field in your form. You should edit your condition and one more check to see if the value if this field is empty, then only send the notification email alert. When you edit your submission, you will need to ensure that you add some value in this hidden field. Please be noted that hidden field will be visible when you edit the submission from the form's submission page.

    I have implemented the first option in your cloned form. Please take a look at the following cloned form and see if this works as expected:  https://form.jotform.com/53185855824970? 

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

    Do get back to us if you would like to check the second option.

    Thank you!

    Did you do something to my AOIC Job Application form? It is no longer
    sending me a notification at cmoore@affordataxprep.com for the pastt 24
    hours and I've had several people to apply.
    If not, can you look at the form to see what is going on? In your response
    back to me, it stated you did something to a cloned form. I don't see a
    cloned form, so you may have done it to my form.
    Please advise.

    This Notifier (below) is coming from my form: 2016 AOIC Hiree Job
    Applicationrm:I assume. However, the Notifier I selected is entitled
    "Notifier to Afforda" and it should not show the hidden fields. As well, it
    has a title. Why is it now showing a different notifier?

    Could you please re-post the notification. It seems that it did not get uploaded correctly. I have reviewed the form in question and was not able to find any issues.

    Once we get the notification, we maybe we will able to locate the form it came from.

    I upgraded. Do you see it on your end and I did I do it prior to my form
    submissions being halted?
