Can I edit or customize a ticketing form?
# Customize or Edit a Ticketing System Form
Also known as: edit a ticket form, change a support ticket form, update ticketing system fields, modify a help-desk form
After you create a Ticketing System form, use these steps to add to or change its interactive features.
Step 1: Open the Form's Actions Menu
- Click on the Forms tab on the vertical Dashboard menu at the left side of the screen.
- Click on the Ticketing System tab.
- In the Tickets window, locate your form in the list.
- Click the ⋮ (three-dot) menu in the ACTIONS column for that form's row. This opens a dropdown with several options, including Access Management, Duplicate Form, Edit Form Settings, Form Builder, and Deactivate.
Step 2: Edit Basic Form Settings
To change the form's name, recipients, or the "Members Only" setting:
- From the ⋮ Actions dropdown, click Edit Form Settings (gear icon).
- In the EDIT TICKETING FORM window that opens, update any of the following:
- Form Name
- Submission Response
- Form Recipient(s)
- Make Survey/Poll, Enable Ticketing, Make Form Uneditable, Member Dashboard/Portal Accessible checkboxes
- Members Only — note this checkbox is locked on (not editable) whenever Enable Ticketing is on, since a ticket must be tied to a logged-in member's account
- Click Save to accept your changes and return to the TICKETS window.
- To cancel instead, click Cancel, press Esc, or click the X in the top right corner.
- To cancel instead, click Cancel, press Esc, or click the X in the top right corner.
Step 3: Add or Edit Sections and Fields
To add new input fields or edit the layout of the ticket form itself:
- From the ⋮ Actions dropdown, click Form Builder (pencil icon) instead of Edit Form Settings.
This opens the FORM MANAGEMENT window with that form pre-loaded. If you open the wrong form by mistake, use the Select Form to Edit dropdown at the top of the window to switch to the correct one — it also includes a + CREATE NEW FORM option. From here, follow the same process used for Custom Forms:
- See the Custom Forms help article, specifically the "Customize or Edit a Form" section, starting at "Custom forms display their requests for input in individual sections."
