This one has been requested quite a few times and we're happy to finally release v1 of our multi-page functionality. You can now split long forms into multiple pages to make it easier for your users to go from page to page instead of being hit by a wall of fields to fill out.

We'd like to emphasize on the v1 here. There are plans to improve certain things and maybe change how pages are created in the form editor. We're looking forward to any kind of feedback from our customers. What do you like, what not, what could be better. Feel free to use the contact option in the lower left corner when logged-in.

Learn more about how to create pages.

Custom affiliate link

We added the option to add an affiliate link to our "Powered by Deftform" backlink. So instead of removing the backlink altogether, consider taking part in our affiliate program to earn 40% per sale.

Head over to the workspace settings and paste your affiliate link.

Additional fonts

3 new fonts were added that can be selected when creating or updating a custom style:

• Source Sans Pro
• Jost
• Lexend

Maintenance updates and bug fixes

To conclude the update, we also updated the underlying software and systems to their latest versions and fixed a couple of bugs that were reported in the last few weeks.

We also silently removed the "Math" captcha a couple of days ago because it was causing errors under certain circumstances and since we were relying on a third-party solution, we were not able to provide a fix. For most people, the ALTCHA solution is the best and most privacy-friendly option and we recommend enabling this instead of Google reCAPTCHA.

For existing forms that had the math captcha enabled, we automatically migrated those to the ALTCHA captcha.

We just released early access to our API, added an option to enable a time picker, and fixed various, smaller bugs.

API in public beta

Our API is now available and should be considered public beta. Not all planned endpoints are available yet, and there is no official documentation yet. Nonetheless, feel free to head over to the new API settings to see how to get started.

Time picker option for date picker field

We added an option to enable a time picker if a form has a date picker field. This has been requested quite a few times, and we're happy to finally offer this option.

As noted in a recent update, you can change the locale of your workspace, which will change the language of the date picker, and it will now also take the time picker into effect. If you select "English US", you will have AM and PM in the 12h format; if you selected German, you will have 24h format. 

Fixes

We also fixed a handful of smaller issues and improved the field validations a little.

For those who need additional and extended features, we're happy to introduce our Business add-on.

This add-on allows you to enable data enrichment, which is best suited for B2B contacts. Only collect the email address and automatically gather additional data such as full name, social accounts, photo, phone numbers and various company details.

We also automatically check the validity of the email address that was entered by the user. So you can be sure that you received a valid email address.

Other features include a custom workspace logo in the backend, the ability to sell multiple products via Stripe, removal of the Deftform backlink, removal of the "Report form" badge, disabling of the 2-minute limit, and custom SMTP service integration (also available as a separate add-on).

The Business add-on is a monthly subscription and can be purchased via the Access / Billing section when logged in.

Today we shipped our first, basic version of conditional logic, made improvements to the date picker, and also added an option to password-protect a form.

Conditional logic - show / hide fields

The first version of conditional logic is now available. You can show/hide fields based on the selection a respondent makes. Supported trigger fields are Rating, Single Select, and Dropdown. Supported fields will probably be extended in a future update. Currently, only the Rating field supports operators other than "is equal".

This functionality will also be extended in the future.

Improved date picker

We also made a few improvements to the date picker. First off, we changed the appearance, making it easier to click dates and select the year. You can now also change the locale of the date picker. It previously used US English by default, with Sunday as the first day of the week.

You can change the locale in the workspace settings (it's a global setting for all date pickers in that workspace). We currently support 28 languages. If you are missing one, feel free to get in touch.

Password-protected forms

And last but not least, you can now set a password that has to be entered when viewing a form. You can find the option for this in the form settings.

We also fixed a handful of bugs and made some subtle changes across the backend area.

Although we planned this feature for the upcoming 'Business' add-on, many customers have expressed interest in sending emails from their own address independently of the add-on.

So we made this a separate add-on which is not a subscription (the "Business" plan will be), but can be unlocked via a one-time payment. Head over to the new "Custom SMTP / Email" settings to enter your custom SMTP credentials.

After confirming them, emails are automatically sent from your email address.
