After preparing your questions and answers, the next step is to set up a contact form to collect users’ details. We can have the contact form setup to show before or after they complete the quiz or survey.
This contact form is useful for collecting information like names, email addresses, business names, phone numbers and other custom information. This information can be used later for sending quiz alerts, results, newsletters, and other marketing activities.
You can create this form with multiple input fields for different types of information in the Contact Tab.
1. Contact Field Type
When adding a new field in QSM, you can choose from 8 types of contact fields:
- Text: For input like names, businesses, phone numbers, etc.
- Email: Validates the input as an email address.
- URL: For website addresses.
- Number: Accepts numerical input, useful for phone numbers, student IDs, etc.
- Date: Collects date information, with format settings available in the Options Tab.
- Checkbox: For confirmations, such as agreeing to terms and conditions.
- Radio: For adding a single use option example: gender type, etc.
- Select: This adds a drop-down in the form, you need to add the comma separated drop-down options by clicking on the settings > Options.
It’s important to know that four contact fields—Name, Email, Business, and Phone—come pre-built in QSM and are initially disabled. While you can customize their labels to fit your needs, their types are fixed and cannot be altered. These fields are permanent and cannot be removed.
2. Label
Choose a label for each field; this text will be displayed next to the field.
3. Settings
Various settings are available based on the selected form type.
- Required: If checked, the field must be filled in before the quiz or survey can be submitted.

- Min Length: Set the minimum number of characters or numbers the input must have.
- Max Length: Set the maximum number of characters or numbers allowed in the input.
