Forms are reusable, they can be used to attach in events for registrations, call for speakers, etc and to create independent community surveys too.

Create a new form using **Create New Form** button.

Types of supported responses:

* Short answer&#x20;
* Long answer (for a paragraph)
* Number&#x20;
* Single choice
* Multiple Choice&#x20;

You can:

* Reorder questions with drag n drop
* Add questions in between questions
* Disable questions after they have received responses
* Clone the form too

Click on the **Required** checkbox to make it mandatory to fill the field in order to submit the form.&#x20;

A question cannot be deleted once the form has responses in order to maintain those, though it can be disabled anytime if you don't want it to appear anymore.
