    Hello. I have an additional question about this. I have all the fields hidden on a page, but the "next" button still shows for each page hidden. Is there a way to bypass the entire page without having to use the "skip page" since all the fields are hidden or is that the only way to skip the next button as well? Thanks!

    Hello Erica,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. If all fields on a form page are hidden manually or conditionally, you'll need to use the Skip To/Hide A Page conditional logic to skip the page in question. Using the Show/Hide Multiple Field condition will result to either a page with just the Next and/or Back button, or a completely blank page. If you need further assistance, it'll help if you can share screenshots, the URL of the form, and the specify the page in question that contains the hidden fields.

    Let us know if you need any more help.

    I'm trying to skip pages that are irrelevant based on the selections on page 1. I have 3 pages to sign, but if someone doesn't check off item 2 I want it to skip that page. It seems the skip/hide only works with very specific guidelines that I'm not able to enter.

    Hi Erica,

    You can add a final page to your form, and use the Hide option in the Skip to/Hide a Page conditional logic. I cloned your form, and applied the changes to it. Check out the screencast below:

    As you can see, I can skip the pages that weren't selected in the Multiple Choice widget on the first page. You can clone my demo form to make things easier, or you can do it on your end. Let me show you how to do it:

    1. In Form Builder, click on Add New Page Here at the bottom of the page.

    2. Click on Add Form Element on the left side of the page.

    3. Drag, and drop a Paragraph widget on your form's last page.

    4. Click on the Wand icon of your Paragraph widget, and enter your message.
    5. Click on the Checkmark icon of your Paragraph widget.

    7. Click on Add Condition.
