Conditional Logic

What is Conditional Logic?

Conditional logic lets you create dynamic forms that respond to user input in real time. Show a field when a checkbox is ticked. Hide a section when "No" is selected. Skip to a different step based on an answer.

The result: shorter forms, better completion rates, and more relevant data. (Learn more about how form design impacts conversions.)

Setting Up Conditions

Every field in SkunkForms has a Conditions panel in the block sidebar:

1. Select the field you want to control
2. Open the Conditions panel in the sidebar
3. Click Add Condition
4. Configure:
   • If — the field to watch
   • Is / Is not / Contains / Is empty — the comparison
   • Value — what to compare against
   • Then — Show, Hide, Enable, Disable, or Require this field

Example: Show "Other" text field

You have a dropdown asking "How did you hear about us?" with options like Google, Social Media, Friend, and Other.

Condition:

• If "How did you hear about us?" is "Other"
• Then Show "Please specify" text field

The text field stays hidden until the user selects "Other" — keeping the form clean.

Multiple Conditions

You can add multiple conditions to a single field. Choose how they combine:

• All conditions (AND) — every condition must be true
• Any condition (OR) — at least one condition must be true

Example: Show discount field

• If "Role" is "Student" OR
• If "Role" is "Non-profit"
• Then Show "Discount Code" field

Multi-Step Conditional Routing

In multi-step forms, conditions can control which step comes next:

• If "Budget" is "Under £1,000" → skip to Step 4 (self-service)
• If "Budget" is "Over £10,000" → go to Step 3 (book a call)

This creates branching forms that feel personalised without being overwhelming.

Tips

• Keep conditions simple — complex chains are hard to debug
• Test your forms thoroughly after adding conditions
• Use the Preview mode to walk through every path
• Name your fields clearly so conditions are easy to read
