Does Easy Form Builder support conditional logic?

Yes. Easy Form Builder includes a visual conditional logic builder. You can show or hide fields and steps, make fields required or optional dynamically, set or clear values, jump to a specific step (skip logic), and send conditional email notifications - all without writing code. Conditional rules are also enforced on the server, so hidden fields are validated and sanitized correctly.

Is conditional logic free?

Yes. Conditional logic is available at no cost in the Free Plus version, which includes up to 3 logic rules per form, up to 2 conditions per rule, and up to 2 conditional email notification rules. The Pro version removes these limits and adds nested AND/OR groups, calculations, conditional redirects and thank-you messages, conditional webhooks, and the logic Inspector.

What does the Free version include?

The Free version provides essential form-building tools. It is suitable for users who need reliable form creation with email notifications, confirmation codes, entry management, file uploads, and basic survey fields.

For conditional logic, Pro removes all rule limits and adds nested AND/OR groups, calculations, rule priority, conditional thank-you messages and redirects, conditional webhooks, rule export/import, and the logic Inspector (debugger).

This version is suitable for professional websites, service platforms, and projects that require extended workflows such as SMS notifications, payment forms, conditional workflows, and advanced integrations.

Can I show or hide form fields based on a user's answer?

Yes. Conditional fields are the core of the conditional logic builder: choose a condition (for example, "Plan is Enterprise") and an action (for example, "show the Budget field"), and the form updates in real time while the visitor fills it in.

Can I send form notification emails to different recipients based on the answers?

Yes. Conditional email notifications let you route each submission to the right person or team - for example, sales versus support - based on what the visitor selected in the form.

Does conditional logic work with multi-step forms?

Yes. You can show, hide, or skip entire steps and jump directly to a specific step (conditional branching), with correct Back/Next behavior and validation for hidden or skipped steps.

Can Easy Form Builder auto-populate form fields?

Yes. The Auto-Populate (Autofill) add-on can fill form fields automatically instead of asking visitors to type information you already have. Fields can be dynamically populated from your own datasets (CSV) with Auto-Populate Dataset, or from an external API with Auto-Populate Integrations. Both are official add-ons available in the Pro version.

Can I populate form fields from a CSV file or my own dataset?

Yes. With Auto-Populate Dataset, you upload a CSV file (UTF-8 with column headers in the first row) and connect it to a form. Form elements are mapped to dataset fields as search conditions, and the matching dataset columns automatically populate the target fields. Multiple fields can auto-populate from the same dataset, dataset values can be edited inline, and changes take effect immediately for new submissions.

Can I auto-fill form fields from an external API?

Yes. Auto-Populate Integrations connects a form to an external API endpoint and fills fields with real-time data. It supports API Key, Bearer Token, and Basic Auth authentication, lets you map API response fields to your form fields, includes a built-in test tool to verify the connection, and offers caching and timeout settings so forms keep loading fast.

Does Easy Form Builder support recurring payments?

Yes. The payment fields support one-time, daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly billing options for subscription and recurring payment forms. You can create payment forms using Stripe or PayPal to accept online payments directly through your WordPress forms. Both payment gateways are available as add-ons and can be configured from the Easy Form Builder settings. How to Create a payment form to collect online payments in Easy Form Builder

Can I send WordPress form submissions to Google Sheets?

Yes. Easy Form Builder includes a Google Sheets integration that syncs form entries to a spreadsheet automatically - no Zapier or third-party connector required. You connect your site once with a Google service account, bind each form to a sheet tab with a simple wizard, and new submissions appear as rows, with the header row created automatically on the first submission. A built-in Google Sheet log shows every sync attempt.

How can I stop WordPress form spam without using CAPTCHA?

Use the Security & Spam Protection add-on in Easy Form Builder. It works invisibly - no puzzles or checkboxes - by scoring real browser behavior, a hidden honeypot field, signed single-use security tokens, and per-IP rate limits. Suspicious requests are logged, quarantined, or blocked depending on the mode you choose (Monitor only, Soft block, or Strict).

Does the spam protection send visitor data to an external anti-spam service?

No. All scoring, tokens, rate limits, and security logs are processed and stored on your own WordPress site. The logs keep hashed identifiers instead of raw IP addresses, and log retention is configurable (30 days by default).

Can spam protection stop bots from wasting my email and SMS quota?

Yes. Low-confidence submissions can be saved without triggering email, SMS, Telegram, webhook, or Google Sheets actions. Each channel also has a daily limit and a per-recipient cap, so bot traffic cannot burn through paid SMS credit or flood your inbox - while the entries stay available for review.

Do the country, state, and city fields load data from an external source?

Yes. The country, state/province, and city lists used in Easy Form Builder are automatically loaded from an external CDN-hosted JSON source maintained on GitHub.

These lists are fetched from the following public repository: https://github.com/hassantafreshi/Json-List-of-countries-states-and-cities-in-the-world

The data is delivered via a CDN to ensure fast loading and reliable access, and it includes country names, states/provinces, and cities in multiple language formats where available.

If you notice any missing entries, incorrect names, or data issues related to countries, states, or cities, please report the issue by creating a ticket in the GitHub repository above. This helps keep the dataset accurate and up to date for all users.

No personal or form submission data is sent to this external source. The CDN is used only to retrieve static geographic lists required for form fields.

What are the different confirmation code styles and how do I customize confirmation code (or tracking code) in my WordPress form submissions?

Easy Form Builder WordPress plugin includes seven confirmation code (or tracking code) styles with locale-aware character support for submitted forms. Each tracking ID style can use characters from 55+ languages including Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Russian, Hebrew, Hindi, Persian, Arabic, Bengali, Gujarati, Punjabi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, Greek, Thai, Khmer, Lao, Myanmar, Georgian, Armenian, and more.

When users submit forms through the Easy Form Builder WordPress plugin, they receive a unique tracking code or confirmation code based on your chosen style. The seven available confirmation code styles for form submissions are: - Date + Random Number - Date + National Language Letters & Random Number - Date + National Language Letters Only - Date + English Characters - Date + National Random Numbers - Unique Number (date-based) - National Language Letters & Random Number

In the Easy Form Builder plugin settings, you can choose your preferred confirmation code style from the form submission tracking options. The plugin automatically selects characters based on your website's language/locale, making it ideal for multilingual and RTL (right-to-left) language WordPress websites. This feature improves code readability and user experience when users submit forms, displaying confirmation codes and tracking IDs in the visitor's native language and script.
