Message panel
Configure informational screens between questions with a continue button
The Message panel is a non-question screen you can place between other steps. It shows a title, optional markdown body, and a continue button so respondents read context or instructions before going on. In the form builder it appears under Panels as Message panel.
It uses the same editor pattern as the Welcome Panel and Thank you screen, but it is meant for mid-flow content (disclaimers, section intros, rich notes)—not as the opening or closing screen of the form.
When to use
- Instructions or context before a block of questions
- Disclaimers or “please read” copy without collecting an answer
- A styled pause between sections while keeping a single continue action
Customization options
When editing a Message panel, you can configure the following properties:
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Title | Main heading on the panel (required). Up to 200 characters. You can insert variables from the picker where supported. |
| Description | Optional body text; markdown is supported (up to 500 characters in the editor). |
| Slug | Optional URL-friendly identifier for this panel. |
| Next button label | Text on the button that continues the form (required). Up to 200 characters. The default placeholder is Next; you can override it (for example “Continue” or “I understand”). |
| Title & description alignment | Left or Center for the title and description block. |
Message panels are not used to store structured answers; the editor keeps them non-required.
Viewing responses
The Message panel does not collect responses. Analytics and exports reflect answers from question elements before and after the panel; see the Response Summary.
