Using conditional logic to show or hide depending on whats showing or hiding....

    I have a conditional logic form that id like to make a little cleaner. What id love to do is hide the first 5 fields if certain html or other fields are showing. Currently i don't see any way of doing this "if html field 1 is showing to user then hide Deposit field" I thought i was clever and tried things like inserting hidden fields with unique id's behind conditional logic section breaks. Still doesn't work because the form still sees those hidden fields value before the conditions are met, if that makes any sense. You can play with the form here...

    It is a draft that we cannot see unless logged in. You need to publish the page.

    As alsc said, you'll need to publish it live before we can see it and troubleshoot it.

    So you should be able to do something like "Hide this field if If Deposit is 10,000 or greater" on each of the forms fields you want gone.

    There is wayyyyy too many variables to make it as easy as that. Deposit is not the only thing that accounts for a potential client being pre-approved, other variables include area, type of property he or she is interested in and income. It's just not possible that way. The only way I see it being done is if I can hide those fields if certain html fields show to the user. There are 6 different "congratulations" html feild scenarios with around 20 conditional logic statements for each.

    Built in conditional logic doesn't work like that. You can only use values or user selections as conditions. So if you wanted to hide it in some other way, you would have to create your own Javascript to do so. No matter what though, it sounds like you'll have to take into consideration more than a few things to hide previous fields.

    Hmm...would there be a way to do this with page breaks? Each page break having each different scenarios message to the user? I once gave this a quick look but didn't see how it was possible as each page break follows the last. So if the scenario doesn't fit the first page break it doesn't work. In other words id need a page break setup with 7-10 different page break scenarios but only 2 actual page breaks ever being shown to the user

    You can use conditional logic on your page breaks. Click the advanced tab and check the box "Enable Page Conditional Logic". Then configure your conditions to make the page show.

    Ok well i tried the page conditional logic and that works great, only problem is that the button shows which i do not want until they are deemed a good applicant. So I tried to run both page conditional and button conditional at the same time with the exact same conditions but it simply does not work. No buttons ever show up.

    I don't want to show poor applicants a button that says "congratulations" if they are not worth our time.

    It seems as though when button and page conditional logic are both checked then the button only shows up when conditions are met on the first page break. All other page breaks that follow do not show there buttons when conditions are met...no idea why this is but thats what is happening.
