Hi, is there a way to auto-sync Formfacades reports with Google Sheets so I don't have to manually hit "sync" every time to update the Google Sheets? Thank you!

Hi John, The sync responses option in the Formfacade Reports page allows you to export the data to google sheets. If you need the real time sync, you can use the Link to sheets feature in Google Forms. By default, the responses will be recorded only in Formfacade. You can view the form submissions in the Formfacade Responses and the Reports page. If needed, you can enable the option to submit responses to Google Forms. Submit to google forms Login to Formfacade > click on the form to open it > Edit page will be displayed > In the Edit page, click on the form title to select it > click on the settings gear icon > Form settings page will be displayed > click Advanced > enable the Submit to google forms option and click Save. Once enabled, new responses will be recorded in Google Forms. If you have linked your google forms with google sheets, the responses will be synced to google sheets in real time.

Hi, I have setup an account under the email address marketing@cathclub.com.au, however to view the form responses i have added some collaborators such as acooke@cathclub.com.au, does each user require a subscription or can multiple people have accounts to access the form? the subscription says we can have a certain amount of forms or responses but nothing about access accounts.

The subscription is linked with the email account used to subscribe to the paid plan. Only that account can be used to customize the form and collect responses. You can add collaborators in the form to provide access, but please note that the collaborators will need to subscribe to the paid plan to access Formfacade after their trial ends. If the collaborator needs access to the Formfacade reports and the ability to edit responses, they should subscribe to the collaborator+ paid plan. https://formfacade.com/enhance/collaborator-pricing.html If your team just needs to view the responses and the uploaded files, you can enable the "Submit to google forms" option in Formfacade and the sync to Google Drive option, and then add your team as a collaborator in Google Sheets and Google Drive to provide access. This option does not need a Formfacade subscription for your team.

Total score not displaying after submission?

You can customize the confirmation message displayed after submit to include the score and other relevant details. Login to Formfacade > click Forms > click on the form to open it > Edit page will be displayed > scroll down to the submit section > select Custom message > enter the preferred confirmation message. Click on the @ icon in the message to insert specific fields from the form.

I did not sign up for this but got charged? The account email is bwheeler5708@gmail

Hi Charles, There is no account linked with bwheeler5708@gmail.com email address. We do not ask for the card details when you install the addon/create your account. So you don't have to worry about getting charged automatically. If you would like to continue using the form after your trial ends, you can subscribe to the paid plan using your card directly on our website.

Hi, How do monthly payments work? Are they charged on a pro-rata basis? For example, if I purchase a monthly billed plan covering the period from 28 November to 24 December, would I be charged for 1 month or 2 months? thanks - Michael

Hi Michael, you subscription starts on the day you subscribe to the paid plan. Monthly subscription is automatically renewed each month and you can cancel it anytime. When you cancel your subscription, it will be valid till the end of the current subscription period. If you purchase a monthly plan covering the period from 26 November, your subscription will renew automatically at the end of the billing cycle on 26 December unless you choose to cancel it.

Is it possible to remove the message on the footer "This content is neither created nor endorsed by Formfacade - report abuse" Thanks

Hi, I have created a form with individual points for each line item. I cannot see the scores when viewing the response. How do I see the score for each question and the totals for each section and final score?

Hi Zelda, when the user fills the form using the Formfacade share link and submits it, the response will be recorded in Formfacade and Google Forms. You can sync Google Forms responses to Google Sheets. This will only include the answers for the questions in the form including the total score if you have set up your form to record it in Google Forms.

Login to Formfacade > click on the form to open it > Edit page will be displayed > click Reports > click on the Export button in the bottom right corner. Please note that the responses will be synced to Sheets only when you click on the Export button in Formfacade. There will be three tabs in the Google Sheets (1) Responses - Shows the answers for all the questions in the form (2) Scores - Shows the points for individual questions along with the answers for other form fields (3) Q & A - You can use pivot table to analyse the data and create aggregate reports.

Hi Katrina By default, there are four order status: Abandoned, Submitted, Completed, Trash. You cannot rename the default status, but you can choose to hide a default status.

Hello, I am getting two errors on my form, when fully submitted, here are two screenshots: 1. Right at submit: https://prnt.sc/C9idKb4uTbtI 2. Another error note, which also happens on submit: https://prnt.sc/d2hkzBekDrAv Thank you!

Submit failed: Not able to update in google forms https://prnt.sc/C9idKb4uTbtI When the user submits the form, the response is recorded in Formfacade and Google Forms. If there are any issues with submitting the form or recording the responses in Google Forms, we show an error message to the user and also send a notification email to the form creator. The submit can fail because there is an issue with the form, internet connectivity issue etc. The notification email will include the error message, draft id, link to the response (abandoned or submitted). If the draft id is prefixed with the *, it indicates that the response has not been submitted. If it is prefixed with a #, it indicates that the response has been submitted. If the error for response shows "Not able to update this response in Google Forms", then this indicates that the submit was successful and the response was recorded in Formfacade, but it was not updated in Google Forms. Google Forms might reject the responses if it fails any response validations (incorrect answers, missing answers for required questions) or if you have enabled any of the features that require signin such as limit to 1 response, collect email address - verified input, send response receipts, response too large etc. You might have also noticed that sometimes Google Forms throws a "Something went wrong" error without giving any additional details. Request entity too large error https://prnt.sc/d2hkzBekDrAv You have added 28 paragraph questions in your form. When the user fills the answer for these paragraph questions along with other required questions in the form, the resulting response exceeds the size limit supported by google forms. That's why you are getting the entity too large error. To fix this, you can add a response validation for these paragraph questions to restrict the max characters or you can enable the option to not record the responses in google forms. Login to Formfacade > click on the form to open it > Edit page will be displayed > In the Formfacade Edit page, click on the form title to select it > click on the settings gear icon > Form settings page will be displayed > click Advanced > enable the toggle button for "Don't submit to google forms" and click Save. When this option is enabled, the responses will be recorded only in Formfacade.

Does this add-on allow a Google Form to be embedded into a website if the file upload feature is part of the form?

Yes, you can use the Formfacade addon to embed a google form with file upload on your website. Google Forms file upload requires login. You must customize your google form using the Formfacade addon to convert this into a html file upload to allow users to upload files without login. You can subscribe to the Formfacade - Embed paid plan. This plan is suitable for occasional light use cases that require collecting files. You get a 10mb max size per file with a total file storage of 1gb. Only the form owner can access the files one at a time after they login with their google account. Formfacade - Embed https://formfacade.com/embed/pricing.html If your requirement is to collect large files and collaborate with your team, you should also subscribe to the file upload plan 10gb, 100gb or 1tb. You can increase the max file size to up to 1gb per file (depends on the plan), the number of files per file upload question, restrict file types, enable unlisted links to allow anyone to access the files, add collaborators to provide access to specific users and use our addon to sync the uploaded files to your google drive.
