        Screen_Shot_2020-06-11_at_10.13.57_am.png 
        Repeat these steps until you have created all relevant sections.

        Note: Should you wish the order of your options to be a customised list and not in alphabetical order you will need to add a prefix.

        For example;
        a. Agree
        b. Uncertain
        c. Disagree

        or

        1. Agree
        2. Uncertain
        3. Disagree

        Scoring System - When using a dropdown and radio button you have the option to add a scoring system which can then be integrated to a Smart Form. Add the answer on the left hand side (1), then the sum of the answer to Add Score.

        A Quest From with a score field needs to be converted to a Smart Form. When a participant completes the Smart Form their score will be visible on the personal data panel in the Job Seeker profile.

        Comments

        Comments allow you to create dependant help text. Which can be used as normal throughout a quest form or can be utilised as based on a previous question.

        The example below shows when the answer to 'Do you drink alcohol?' is 'yes' the help text will populate on the form. 'Purchasing alcohol under the age of 18 is illegal.'

        Note: As the Label field is mandatory a character need to be inserted. The label will only appear in the form after it has been submitted. To minimise the appearance of this we recommend using one of the following -,.
