Our Different Question Types:

Question types allow you to ask different types of questions during the registration process. Each question type serves a different purpose so continue reading to determine which is best for you.

Short Answer - the answer will be entered in a small box and will just be a few words. This is best for simple questions that have many different possible answers, like "Player's School". People registering will be able to type anything into the box as their answer.

Paragraph - the answer will be entered in a large box and the answer can be several sentences. This is best for more complex questions like "Please list notable medical history and explain issues that coaches should be aware of."

Dropdown - the answer will be selected from a list, and only one choice can be selected, and there are a limited number of options. This option is best for questions like "Player's T-Shirt Size". You can also choose to turn the answers into price modifiers. Read more here on how to do this.

Checkboxes - the answers will be selected from a list, and more than one choice can be selected. This option is best for questions like "Select any areas you would be willing to volunteer". 

Document Upload - For questions that need a document to be uploaded. For example: "Please upload your birth certificate".

Once you've added your questions, your program will automatically open on your website on the "First Day of Registration" that you have set. If you ever need to edit your prices, information, or questions, you can always go back to "Online Registration" in your account and edit your program.

Once you've set up your form, you can also "Duplicate" your program if you need to create other programs with similar custom questions.
