Summary

Use the Summary form element – as the last page in your form, for example – and present users with a summary of their entered data before submitting the form.

This allows users to review their inputs.

If they find something that they want to change, they can page back through the form and make these changes. Once everything is correct, they can then submit the form.

You can see a sample summary of form entries.

Adding Summary

  1. In the Structure area, click the green plus sign.
  2. Navigate to General → Page elements and click Summary.
    You can now see the form element you’ve just added in the form tree.
  3. On the right, under Edit Summary, you can now adjust the settings for your new form element as required.
