Calculated attributes can be used in forms to produce results of a calculation or to transform a string or text to another format to display it in a view.
Calculated attribute formulas are stored in the server side and can not be seen by users.
270+ Microsoft Excel functions can be used in calculations in addition to user defined custom formulas.
Conditional branching(logic) allows to show and hide form fields or questions based on other form fields or questions.
Using conditional branching, you can simplify complex forms and reduce abandonment rate by allowing users to skip irrelevant form questions.
Conditional branching can be applied on all attributes, taxonomies and relationships.
Conditional branching is also created in the edit screen of the applied entity in the admin backend.
WPAS forms provides protection against user errors, spam and attacks by employing multiple prevention mechanisms:
- Cross-site scripting (XSS) prevention mechanism automatically strips out potentially malicious code from the submissions
- Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attack prevention
- Honeypot automated SPAM post protection
- Optional CAPTCHA which can be enabled or disabled in the form settings
- Both server-side and client-side validation. Form degrades gracefully to HTML if JavaScript is disabled
