Different Question Types on a Registration

A question group can't be added more than once.
When editing a question, DO NOT replace a new question option with an old one. Those answers associated with the old question will filter over to the new question. If you no longer need an option, disable that option and add a new option so all registration data will stay in place.

Short Text: Use when the registrant needs to input a short amount of text. (ex. name questions)
Long Text: Use when the user needs to input a large amount of text. (ex. medical questions)
Pulldown: If your question has a lot of answer choices, use a pulldown to save space on the registration page. (Conditional logic can’t be used on this question format’s options)
Radio: A type of question where only one option can be selected. This is the most common question type used. (ex. Position and level of play questions)
Checkbox: A type of question that allows selecting more than one option. To make this question required, a "1" must be entered into the Minimum checked boxes allowed. (ex. volunteer jobs)
Numerical: A type of question that only accepts numbers.

Conditional Logic: The ability for a question to populate based on the answer to a previous question.
