nav[aria-label="Primary Navigation"] { padding: 0; & ul { list-style: none; width: 100%; display: flex; flex-direction: row; justify-content: start; align-items: start; gap: 30px; padding: 0; & li { margin: 0; } & ul li { list-style: none; } } }

If there is an "other" option in my ConfiForm, how can I show what was written in that field?

Christine B_beyok1

I have in my ConfiForms several elements. One field (let's call it X) is a dropdown field with the options "A", "B", and "Other". In case "Other" is chosen, there is another field (let's call it Y), that shows up in that case and gives the option to insert another answer.

Later on my page, I want to show the chosen options on a page using [entry.X], but for the case that "Other" was chosen, I want it to not show "Other", but whatever was written in [entry.Y].

Is this possible? I'm thankful for any help

Hi @Christine B

Take a look at this video

It demonstrates one of the possible approaches to solve that, by using the "evaluateFormula" virtual function

Hope it helps

Yes, this was very helpful!

I have one additional question to this. This Form triggers the creation of a page. On this page I want to show this element. For other elements it works to just put "[entry.X]" there. I don't get, what I need to write, if I want this field. I used the "override label name to use for this field" and called it "Element1" but if I put [entry.Element1] on my page, this doesn't work.

You will need to use the asEntryRef function from https://wiki.vertuna.com/display/CONFIFORMS/Virtual+functions and have something like

id.evaluateFormula(IF(EQUALS("Other", "[entry.id.asEntryRef(entry.X)]"), "[entry.id.asEntryRef(entry.Y)]", "[entry.id.asEntryRef(entry.X)]"))

But how can I reference to this Element in my text?

As shown in my previous picture, it is the "Override label name to use for this field" for the virtual function ConfiForms field element...

To display what was written in the "Other" option of your ConfiForm, use the form's conditional logic or dynamic content features. You can capture and show the custom input by configuring the "Other" field to display its value in confirmation emails or on a thank-you page for users.
