Forms Designer Forum

have designed about 6 forms for 1 list with that contains many fields. I had to change a field in the list (from a lookup using another column to a lookup with embedded values.) The field has the same internal name as before.

On the form designer the field is not visible. However, the field is still visible on the forms that are unchanged since before the field was changed. Now, whenever I edit a form, the field dissappears and I cannot add it back.

I'm looking for a solution that does not involve redoing the forms, because as I mentioned above, there are 6 forms with a lot of fields.

Hello,

Did your new field appear on the left side of Forms Designer? If so, you can put it on the place of the previous column.

Also, you can backup designed forms to files and restore them with help of Export/Import buttons in Forms Designer's ribbon.

If the issue has not been resolved, please, export form where the required field disappeared and send it with the template of your list to support@spform.com

No, the field is not listed on the left in the list of columns.

Hi I'm having the same issue, I added a field and it's not showing on the left hand side.

Anyone else have any luck with this issue? I have created many forms. I have just ran into this one. I have added about six new fields. None show up?

Do these columns belong to the content type you're working with? To check the content type of your form go to Forms Designer, open up the form and check the topmost rightmost box. Now go to the list's settings and check the content type(s) that are listed against the column names. If the content type is not among those names, open the content type's settings and add these columns in. You should now be able to add them to the form.

They are just text boxes and a dropdown.

Either way I removed a few fields and they showed up.



Thanks.
