Prior to the "submit" button, I'd like to add some language regarding the form, along the lines of "by pressing submit, you understand that..." etc.

However, I cannot add plain old regular text to the email form and have it appear above the "Submit" button. When I update the changes, the text disappears.

How can I add text without adding an email form field?

Thank you.

You can add a text content type (plain text/html/WYSIWYG) with your text and have your email form content type below. I wrote an article about it (using content types) on my site below. Hope it helps.

Hi there-

What a great site- thank you!

But I am not sure your guides answer my problem.

I would like to do the following:

Under this code:

IT|fname|1|First Name: |40,100||300
IT|lname|1|Last Name: |40,100||300
IT|camper_name|1|Child's Name: |40,100||300
IT|grade|1|Current Grade: |40,100||300
IT|age|1|Current Age:|40,100||300
IT|address|1|Address: |40,100||300
IT|city|1|City: |40,100||300
IT|state|1|State: |40,100||300
IT|zip|1|Zip: |40,100||300
SC|country|0|Country: |10,100|US|300
IT|tel|0|Telephone: |40,100||300
IT|fax|0|Fax: |40,100||300
IT|email|1|Email: |40,100||300

I would like to say

"By clicking 'Submit' I agree to the...etc"

THEN have the "Submit" button appear underneath that statement.

Any ideas?

Is this ~too~ cheesy??

Oh but of course it is cheesy. But I am not the attorney who came up with the language so oh well.

And your suggestion was very clever but, alas, did not work. It yielded a wonky text field with all of the included text, from "php echo" all the way to the end within it.

Is there a code to just type text like |TX| instead of |IT| or |SC|?

I meant "cheesy" as in it just being ~another~ field of the form

BTW, when I cut & paste "my" suggestion, into an article, as content-type "email form"... it shows ~only~ the disclaimer "text" and ~not~ the PHP tags, etc. BUT it is not the ideal way to present your desired result, sorry

If there is no way to entire plain text in the email form field, is there a way to make a email input field conditional?

For example, if someone enters that their age is <13, can I have their "submission" immediately forwarded to a different page that asks them to have their parents call for an application?
