Q: Can i create a unique ID for every form submission
Hi, Say i am making form for a school and as and when the form is submitted by students, unique id should be generated with each form, kind of like auto-incrementing number. Is it possible with deftform? For instance, popular form builder Jotform has this concept of unique id. I have noticed that most form builders that came to appsumo dont have even this simple concept. I hope deft form has this.
Note: The Unique ID widget lets you attach an alphanumeric code to every form submission you receive. With a unique identifier for every booking, purchase, or order, it’s easier to organize submissions and quickly access them in your records.
A: Hi there, we don't support that yet, but something similar has been requested before. Well, we do create unique IDs on our side, but you cannot add custom codes, or auto-incrementing numbers to it. But we'd like to offer this.
Can you please send an email to support@deftform.com and provide a more detailed example of what you need? I guess it shouldn't be too complicated to add to Deftform.
We don't have a dedicated WordPress plugin, but you can add HTML to WordPress and that will do it. You can simply paste our embed script and that should work. We do consider creating a plugin though, because quite a few people have asked for this. But still, it also works just fine without a plugin.
"... we plan to add an option to send a verification email to respondents to confirm their email manually. This will be a setting on a per-form basis."
Hi I am looking to purchase the form builder, I build websites and I have a customer that needs to have a form where his customers can select a preset day and a time where he is available and pay for it in advance to have a session with him and only if they pay for the appointment it can be successfully booked. Is there a booking appointment setting prebuild or is there a way to build the logic? with JS or other tools prebuild settings or tools?
A: Hi there, while we do offer a date and time field and the possibility to sell products (via Stripe), it's not our target functionality. I'd guess to have a robust calendar booking option, you should consider using a platform that is specialized in that.
That being said, we do also offer a HTML field, that allows you to embed a custom script (e.g. a booking calendar). So yes, you can use Deftform for something like that, but there are specialized platforms for this.

Q: Custom domains
Are custom domains one per account, one per form or one per workspace etc.?
Thanks!
