Reordering Elements

Drag and drop to reorder elements in your form. Some elements have a fixed position and cannot be moved

To reorder, drag an element by the handle (⠿) on the left of its row. Not all elements can be repositioned — some are locked to a fixed location in the form.

Fixed elements

The following elements always stay in their positions and cannot be dragged:

ElementFixed position
HeaderAlways first
CountryAlways second
StateAlways third, displayed alongside Country
Privacy rightAlways fourth — directly after Country/State

Hovering over the drag handle of a fixed element shows a tooltip indicating it cannot be moved.

Freely movable elements

All other elements — both built-in and custom — can be freely repositioned anywhere after the Privacy right element. This includes: First name, Last name, Email, Address, Mobile number, Data subject, Short answer, Multiple choice, Confirmation, File, and URL.

Invalid drop behavior

If you try to drop an element into a position before the Privacy right, the move is blocked and a message appears: "You can't place details before the header, country, state or type of request"

The element returns to its original position.

What happens to conditional logic when you reorder

Conditional logic requires the parent element (the one being responded to) to appear before the child element (the one being shown or hidden). If you reorder elements such that a child ends up before its parent, the condition on that element is automatically removed.

⚠️

Always review your conditional logic after reordering to make sure display rules still behave as expected. See Setting Up Conditional Logic for details.
