Document Uploads in Forms

The document upload widget needs to know what file type to expect for optimal results. If you get a blank document submitted in a form, you might check the settings.

Form Rules (Dynamic Forms)

The most common use for this has been to send a notification to a different salesperson for each location.

Another use case is to show some dynamic content based on a condition.

If you are using Form Rules to dictate notification routing, be aware that a global notification setting will override the form rules.

Form Modal Feature

Modals help your customers stay on the page to continue shopping. We have this built-in to our showrooms. But, this functionality can be helpful throughout your site. So, we're building a modal widget that will allow this for a form on any page.

Custom Subject Line for Contact Us form

A Custom Subject Line option for the Contact Us form can be accessed through the Brow Navigation
