The Idea Submission Form is the third tab when we edit any campaign in a community. This tab consists of three elements which are Idea Submission form to the left, Idea Submission elements, and Custom field elements.
All the elements can easily be dragged and dropped in order to be included in the Idea Submission Form. If you wish to remove any particular element click on the remove link and save. The removed elements will be added back to the right side of the idea submission tool.
Idea Submission Form
The main component which cannot be removed or deleted is Title and Description fields in the Idea Submission form. You can edit or change the heading of these components by clicking on the pencil icon.
We have newly introduced a feature named User Instructions which will be displayed only when we click on the pencil icon to edit the elements. This provides the administrators to add special instructions for the members in fields like Title, Description, and Custom Fields.
Title User Instructions: The instructions will be displayed to members while they fill in the Idea submission form.
Description User Instructions: The administrator of the community can add in details or instructions as to how they are expecting the idea description to be added to the ideas.
