Ivy Forms 0.7 – Smarter Form Building, Faster Workflows

The 0.7 update brings a set of practical improvements that make working with form submissions faster and more intuitive.

With this release, we focused on removing small friction points and improving the overall experience based on your feedback. Whether you’re reviewing submissions, creating multi-field forms, or adjusting layouts, Ivy Forms 0.7 helps you work more efficiently and with fewer clicks.

Enhanced Date Picker Filter with Preset Periods

Until now, filtering form entries by date meant manually selecting start and end dates every time.

With Ivy Forms 0.7, the date picker now includes preset periods you can apply in one click.

You can filter entries by options such as last 7 days, last 30 days, this month, last month. Instead of manually choosing dates, you simply select the preset and the results update instantly.

This small change has a big impact on everyday workflows:

• Faster reporting when reviewing recent submissions
• Easier comparison of form performance over time
• Less clicking and fewer manual inputs
• More consistent filtering across teams

It is especially useful if you manage multiple forms, track weekly leads, or review submissions as part of a routine check.

Improved Form Builder – More Control, Less Clicking

The form builder also received a major usability upgrade. Until now, each row could hold only one field. That meant longer forms, more scrolling, and more time spent arranging layouts. With this update, you can now add up to five fields in a single row, giving you much more control over how your forms look and function.

You can now:

• Add up to 5 fields in one row
• Access individual field settings directly inside the row
• Manage rows directly – duplicate, delete, or rearrange them without leaving the builder
• Resize field widths freely to match your layout needs

This makes it far easier to build compact, well-structured forms without workarounds or unnecessary spacing.

Improved field resizing

One of the biggest improvements here is how resizing behaves.

Field resizing in Ivy Forms is stable and predictable. You can adjust widths confidently without layouts breaking or fields shifting unexpectedly. The resizing works the way you expect it to. You drag, adjust, and move on.

This update is especially useful if you:

• Build multi-column forms
• Want cleaner layouts with fewer rows
• Create lead forms with grouped fields
• Care about form readability and user experience

Bulk Edit Functionality to Option Fields

Another practical improvement is bulk edit for option-based fields like checkboxes, radio buttons, and dropdowns.

Instead of adding each option manually, you can now insert predefined sets with one click. For example, if you’re creating a checkbox for availability, you can select days of the week and all seven options are added instantly. The same applies to common choices like countries, gender, age ranges, etc.

This makes form setup much faster and helps avoid small mistakes like typos or inconsistent labels. It’s especially useful when building longer forms or working with repeated field types.

It’s a simple change that removes a lot of unnecessary manual work and makes form creation smoother and more reliable.

Improved Visibility When Adding New Fields in Form Builder

Another small but noticeable improvement is better visibility when adding and editing fields inside the form builder.

Previously, when you added a new field, it would appear at the bottom of the form. If your form was longer, you often wouldn’t even notice it was added until you manually scrolled down to find it.

Now, when you add a new field, the builder automatically scrolls to its position so you can immediately see where it was placed. There’s no guessing, no searching, and no interruption to your workflow.

The same logic applies when rearranging fields. When you move a field, it stays selected and clearly visible, so you always know exactly which element you’re working on. This makes reordering and fine-tuning layouts much easier, especially in forms with multiple rows and columns.

Added Ability to Customize the Submit Button

The Submit button is still automatically added at the bottom of every form, but it’s now fully customizable. You can access its settings directly and adjust its position by aligning it to the left, right, or center. You can also change the button label, so it says something more specific than the default “Submit.”

This gives you more control over both the layout and the tone of your form, making it easier to match your design and guide users toward the action you want them to take.

“Reply-To” Email Address Option in IvyForms Notifications

When a form is submitted, the admin notification is usually sent from a system or default email address. Until now, if someone replied to that email, the response would go back to the same address that sent the notification.

With this update, you can now set a separate Reply-To email address. That means you can receive form notifications at one email, while replies from users go to a different inbox.

Stay Tuned, Ivy Forms 0.8 is Coming Soon

That wraps up the main improvements in Ivy Forms 0.7. Each update in this release focuses on making form building faster, clearer, and more reliable, without adding unnecessary complexity.

And this is just the start. Work on Ivy Forms 0.8 is already underway, with larger improvements and new functionality planned. More updates are coming soon, and they’ll continue to focus on making form creation smoother, more flexible, and easier to manage as your projects grow.

Stay tuned, the next release brings some meaningful changes.
