Display description of form fields on frontend

Hi @ashankrao

I hope you’re well today and thank you for your question!

Field descriptions are displayed on front-end by default and by design so if you have added descriptions (the “Description” field is optional) they should automatically be showing up on the front-end.

It’s possible that they are hidden due to some conflicting CSS from theme or other plugin or because of some custom CSS that was added to the site or there’s some other unexpected conflict but it’s difficult to say without checking it.

Could you share a link to the page on your site where I could see such form (that has descriptions added to fields but not showing them)?

Best regards,
Adam

Hi Adam,

Thank you for your quick reply.

I have tried the following troubleshooting steps but to no avail.

– tried embedding the form on a different page
– removed all the custom CSS

The field description shows for all the other fields, it just doesn’t work on the ‘Feature Image’ upload field.

Here is the link to the page: https://circulareconomyalliance.com/forminator/

Looking forward to hearing from you
Thanks

Hello there @ashankrao

It seems that the Featured Image description is not used indeed, under any design style. I’m creating a report for our devs so they can resolve this in a future release. Meanwhile, you can use the following snippet in Edit form > Appearance > Custom CSS:

.forminator-file-upload:before {
    content: "Your description text goes here";
    display: block;
}

Warm regards,
Dimitris
