The signup form in EngagementHQ will be used by participants to register on your site. So this form can be customized to collect relevant demographic information from the participants during registration. Read our article on Creating a registration form to understand why you would require a registration form.
If you are changing an existing registration form, read our article on Changing your Registration Form to understand the implications of the data collected.
You can use Participant Demographic Attributes in your Signup Form to assist with accurate demographic analysis in your Dashboard reports. You can attach the Age attribute to the Date question and the Gender and Ethnicity attributes to Radio buttons, Checkboxes, or Dropdown questions. You can apply each attribute to one question at a time. Participants can manage and update the information they provide when they create their account in the Personal Info section of their profile.
To access this form click the Site Settings link from the left menu of EnagagementHQ and then click on Signup Form.
Note: Only site admins can access site settings.
This will display the Signup Form.

3. Note - The Type of a question (eg. Single Line, Dropdown, etc.) cannot be changed once created. However, you may delete the question and add a new question type.
4. Note: You can include reCAPTCHA challenge on your registration form by going to the Site Settings > Privacy > Enable the toggle Enable Google's "reCAPTCHA" across your site
Conditional questions
You can create conditional questions that only show when a certain condition has been satisfied. To do this, first create a question like "Are you willing to tell us more about yourself by answering four additional questions?" This is called the parent question. Now create the conditional question, which will appear and capture more information if the participant selects the 'yes' option. To do this, create the new question and simply tick the box in the question that says 'Show this question only when...', select the parent question and the option on when it is to be displayed, as illustrated below.
Once added, this conditional question appears just under the parent question.
