Give admins a simple way to hide user fields that are no longer needed without losing the data behind them. This keeps forms clean for users and lets admins keep using that data in reports.
Give admins a simple way to hide user fields that are no longer needed without losing the data behind them. This keeps forms clean for users and lets admins keep using that data in reports.
What's new?
We’re introducing a Visibility Toggle in the UDF admin table. Admins will see a new column in the interface, allowing them to set fields as either "Visible" or "Hidden." Hidden fields are excluded from user-facing registration and workflow steps but retained in full for analytics and reporting.
Why is it valuable?
Right now, admins are stuck choosing between keeping outdated UDFs that clutter up registration workflows or deleting them and losing valuable historical data. That’s not a great tradeoff. This feature removes that pain by introducing a visibility toggle, letting admins hide fields from users without sacrificing data. It streamlines the end-user experience and makes admin work more efficient, all while keeping the reporting picture whole.
