Adding a single option

You can add one new option or many (see the section below).

Step 1. In the Edit pop-up, click Add Row.
Step 2. Paste in a Value (internal) and Label (public field name). You can use the same information for both, as we’ve done here, or make them different.
Step 3. Click Submit. Then be sure to click Save to process the change to the form!
  You can make any other changes you need to this field here, such as allowing multiple selections or not, including an Other field, creating groups for your options, or making the field visible only to certain users.

Step 1. Click the link, and then paste in a list of Value/Label information:

If you need the Value and Label to be different, separate them with a comma, as shown below:
Step 2. Click Submit to save this list. Then click Submit again to save the change.
Step 3. Your new options are now added to this field:
Be sure to click Save to process the change to the form!
