Hidden Field

A Hidden field is never shown to the visitor on the front-end. It stores a value that's saved with the submission.

Use it to pass along context like a campaign name, a page URL, or a product ID, often populated with a smart tag.

How to add a Hidden Field

  1. Log into your Joomla backend.
  2. Go to Components → Convert Forms → Forms.
  3. Create a new form or edit an existing one.
  4. In the form builder, click Add Field.
  5. Select Hidden Field from the field list.
  6. Configure the field's settings.
  7. Save the form.
