Form warnings can guide your respondents in filling out your form. They help prevent incorrect or incomplete answers like an invalid email address or an empty required field. You can customize your form warning messages to your desired tone or language.
To change your form warning messages
- In the Form Builder, go to Settings at the top.
- Select Show More Options at the bottom.
- Select Edit next to Form Warnings.
- Use the search bar at the top to filter the warning messages.
- Enter your new messages in the corresponding fields.
Note
HTML tags are not supported in Form Warnings. Use plain text for your warning messages.
- Once finished, scroll down to the bottom and select Save Changes.

Hello
I've deleted all the entries from all my submission forms. During the testing phase of my latest form, every time I complete the form using the "Fill Form" option, or click onto the form link I get this response "Sorry! Only one entry is allowed."
Please advise how to correct this issue.
Many thanks

I have a unique question in my form. Where do I find the "Sorry! Only one entry is allowed." message? It's not listed under Form Warnings, and I need to change it to say "Sorry! That email address is already registered. Please try again using a different email." Otherwise they won't know why they can't submit their form.

Hi-- I am not seeing this message when using the form to upload a video file... instead, it just looks like nothing is happening for a minute, then I get the Thank You screen. I have put caution instructions to Wait next to the submit button, but it would be awesome if this warning happened once the submit button is clicked.

Is there a way to create a custom condition that produces a warning message but at the end of the form before the submit button? For example, we have a form that has the ability to enter info for 3 people on it. If they enter something for person 1 incorrectly can we then trigger the conditional response of you need to adjust this but have it show up by the submit button? The purpose would be that all error messages would populate in one area rather than having to scroll through the full form looking for the error. Which Jotform may not consider an error but rather just a condition that has been triggered due to the users choice.

How do you turn off the highlight that displays when someone doesn't fill a field? I want the "This field is required" but not the big ugly highlight box around it. I turned off Highlights but that only turns off the ugly box when the focus is on a specific field.

Is there any way to insert html into my custom warning messages?
I want to make my error message for duplicate entries display a list of options for the user below, in a "UL" element. When I enter the tags, they are sanitized out. So far, I've succeeded by replacing the opening bracket of the tags with an "lt" character reference, but whenever I want to change the message, I have to re-enter them.
