Form Defaults

Form Defaults set the wording of the registration form built into your landing pages: the consent checkboxes, the links to your terms and privacy policy, the submit button, and the placeholders and hints in the fields. Set them once and every form uses them, unless a form sets its own.

Access: only admins can change Form Defaults. Settings appears in the sidebar only for admins.

Where these defaults apply

Form Defaults are used by the form that a funnel's form step places on a landing page (the {{funnel.form}} block). For each piece of text, the form uses the first of these that's set:

1. the text set on the form step itself (see Funnels)
2. your Form Defaults
3. the built-in default

They don't change:

• The attendee app's registration form at live.yourdomain.com. Its text is fixed, in Romanian: the required checkbox reads Accept Termenii și condițiile, Politica de confidențialitate și prelucrarea datelor mele personale. ("I accept the Terms and Conditions, the Privacy Policy and the processing of my personal data."), the optional one Vreau să primesc newslettere, recomandări și oferte pe email de la followed by your organization's name ("I want to receive newsletters, recommendations and offers by email from …"), and the button Confirmă înscrierea ("Confirm registration"). Its links always open /termeni-si-conditii and /politica-de-confidentialitate on your public site. See Registration & Attendee Experience.
• Forms you write yourself in a landing page's HTML. They show whatever text you put in them.
• Field labels. The built-in labels Email, Name and Phone can only be changed on each form.

Built-in defaults

This is what a landing-page form shows when neither the form nor your Form Defaults sets the text. The built-in text is in English, while the rest of what attendees see is in Romanian, so set Form Defaults if your audience expects Romanian or another language.

Setting	Built-in default
Consent label template	I accept the {terms} and {privacy}.
Terms link text	Terms and Conditions
Privacy link text	Privacy Policy
Terms URL	/terms
Privacy URL	/privacy
Marketing label	I want to receive newsletters and offers via email.
Button label	Submit
Placeholders and hints	None

The built-in links lead nowhere

/terms and /privacy don't exist on your public site, so with the built-in defaults the consent links open an error page. Your public site's legal pages are at /termeni-si-conditii and /politica-de-confidentialitate. Set Terms URL and Privacy URL to those, or to your own policy pages.

Set your defaults

1. Go to Settings → Form Defaults.
2. Fill in the cards described below. A field you've never saved text in uses the built-in default.
3. Click Save. Every Save button on the page saves all four cards.

Landing pages are cached, so a page you've already published keeps its old form text until its cache is refreshed. Click Clear Cache on the page in Pages, or Clear Cache in Settings → General to refresh every page at once.

Field Placeholders & Hints

A placeholder is the grey text inside an empty field. A hint is a line of help text under the field.

Field	What it does
Name placeholder	Placeholder of the name field
Name hint	Hint under the name field
Email placeholder	Placeholder of the email field
Email hint	Hint under the email field
Phone placeholder	Placeholder of the phone field
Phone hint	Hint under the phone field

The grey examples you see in these inputs on the settings page, such as Ex: Ionescu and [email protected], are only examples. Nothing is saved unless you type it. Whether a form asks for a name or a phone number at all is set on each form.

Terms & Privacy Consent

The required checkbox that every landing-page form shows.

Field	What it does
Consent label template	The checkbox text. Write {terms} and {privacy} where the two links should go.
Terms link text	The words that replace {terms} and link to your terms.
Privacy link text	The words that replace {privacy} and link to your privacy policy.
Terms URL	Where the terms link goes. A path such as /termeni-si-conditii opens on your public site; a full address such as https://yourdomain.com/terms opens anywhere.
Privacy URL	Where the privacy link goes.

The links open in a new tab. To match the attendee app's wording in Romanian, you could use:

• Consent label template: Accept {terms}, {privacy} și prelucrarea datelor mele personale.
• Terms link text: Termenii și condițiile
• Privacy link text: Politica de confidențialitate
• Terms URL: /termeni-si-conditii
• Privacy URL: /politica-de-confidentialitate

Email Marketing Consent

Marketing label is the text of the optional marketing checkbox. Whether a form shows this checkbox is set on each form.

Submit Button

Button label is the text of the form's submit button.

What the form records

Write your labels so people know what they're agreeing to. The form records consents like this:

When the person…	The form records
Ticks the required checkbox	Acceptance of your terms and consent to processing their personal data, both from this one checkbox
Ticks the marketing checkbox	Email marketing consent, plus SMS marketing consent if they also entered a phone number
Enters a phone number	SMS notification consent. There's no separate checkbox for it.

If your forms ask for a phone number, say in the Phone hint or the consent text that it's used for SMS notifications. See Registration & Attendee Experience and GDPR.

The required checkbox is checked only in the browser

The visitor's browser won't submit the built-in form until the required checkbox is ticked, but the platform itself accepts a submission without it. If you build your own form instead of using {{funnel.form}}, the Form Fields list in the page editor doesn't include the consent checkboxes. Add them yourself, with these exact names:

<input type="checkbox" name="consent_data_processing" value="1" required>
<input type="checkbox" name="consent_email_marketing" value="1">

The first is the required terms and data-processing consent, the second the optional marketing consent. Without the first, people can register without giving that consent.

Change the text on a single form

Each form step can override any of these texts, change the field labels, choose which fields appear and hide the marketing checkbox. See Funnels.

Emptying a field doesn't restore the built-in default

If you clear a field that already has saved text and click Save, the old text stays in use and reappears when you reload the page. To change it, type the new text, for example the built-in default from the table above.
