I was charged 96.00 on 4/26/2024 and I had cancelled my subscription in March. My usual invoice was for 12.00 monthly so why was I charged 96.00???
Hi Lindsey, you subscribed to the monthly plan on 5-Jun-2023 and cancelled the subscription in March this year. The last payment for your account was on 5-Feb-2024. Note: When you subscribe to the paid plan, you can either choose the monthly or annual option. If you choose the Basic plan monthly subscription, you will be charged $96 and your subscription is valid for 1 year. Annual subscription is a 12 month contract and it is non-refundable. If you choose the Basic plan monthly subscription, you will be charged $16 each month. Monthly subscription is automatically renewed each month. You can cancel it anytime.
Hello, My project team has a Formfacade subscription that is currently associated with the email account of an individual who is moving on from our team. I am wondering how we can transfer ownership of our Formfacade account to maintain access to our surveys. I see an option to change the email address associated with billing, but would appreciate any further help to understand how to change the email associated with the actual account (i.e., email used to log in, or to receive confirmation of survey submissions, etc.). *I've included the share link to one survey, but my question refers to my Formface account in general* Thank you!
Hi Crissy, Formfacade uses google signin. We do not have the option to transfer ownership or subscriptions. The subscription is linked with the email account used to subscribe to the paid plan. Only that account can be used to create the form and collect responses.
I am using the form I used last year to receive photos from parishioners in our parish for World Day for Grandparents and the Elderly. I would like to delete the old ABANDONED, SUBMITTED, COMPLETED AND TRASH uploads from the previous year - I don't see this as an option. Please advice. Thank you - Patty Lindner, Dir. of Communications, The Community of the Good Shepherd.

form not open
Hi Pritam, Formfacade supports only public forms. If you have enabled Google Forms features that require signin such as limit to 1 response, file upload, send respondents a copy of their response option or enable collect email address with verified input option, you won't be able to use Formfacade. You have enabled the collect email address with verified input option in your form. You must disable the collect email address option add a short answer question with text email response validation to collect email address or use collect email address with responder's input option. Also, you have added a file upload question in your form. You must convert this in to a html file upload using the Formfacade - File upload addon and then use the Formfacade share link to collect responses.

Hi Katrina By default, there are four order status: Abandoned, Submitted, Completed, Trash. You cannot rename the default status, but you can choose to hide a default status.

You can sync Google Forms responses to Google Sheets. Submitted orders will have # prefixed to the order number in the Neartail Orders page. The order numbers should be in sequential order.

Hello, I am getting two errors on my form, when fully submitted, here are two screenshots: 1. Right at submit: https://prnt.sc/C9idKb4uTbtI 2. Another error note, which also happens on submit: https://prnt.sc/d2hkzBekDrAv Thank you!
Submit failed: Not able to update in google forms https://prnt.sc/C9idKb4uTbtI When the user submits the form, the response is recorded in Formfacade and Google Forms. If there are any issues with submitting the form or recording the responses in Google Forms, we show an error message to the user and also send a notification email to the form creator. The submit can fail because there is an issue with the form, internet connectivity issue etc. The notification email will include the error message, draft id, link to the response (abandoned or submitted). If the draft id is prefixed with the *, it indicates that the response has not been submitted. If it is prefixed with a #, it indicates that the response has been submitted. If the error for response shows "Not able to update this response in Google Forms", then this indicates that the submit was successful and the response was recorded in Formfacade, but it was not updated in Google Forms. Google Forms might reject the responses if it fails any response validations (incorrect answers, missing answers for required questions) or if you have enabled any of the features that require signin such as limit to 1 response, collect email address - verified input, send response receipts, response too large etc. You might have also noticed that sometimes Google Forms throws a "Something went wrong" error without giving any additional details. Request entity too large error https://prnt.sc/d2hkzBekDrAv You have added 28 paragraph questions in your form. When the user fills the answer for these paragraph questions along with other required questions in the form, the resulting response exceeds the size limit supported by google forms. That's why you are getting the entity too large error. To fix this, you can add a response validation for these paragraph questions to restrict the max characters or you can enable the option to not record the responses in google forms. Login to Formfacade > click on the form to open it > Edit page will be displayed > In the Formfacade Edit page, click on the form title to select it > click on the settings gear icon > Form settings page will be displayed > click Advanced > enable the toggle button for "Don't submit to google forms" and click Save. When this option is enabled, the responses will be recorded only in Formfacade.
Does this add-on allow a Google Form to be embedded into a website if the file upload feature is part of the form?
Yes, you can use the Formfacade addon to embed a google form with file upload on your website. Google Forms file upload requires login. You must customize your google form using the Formfacade addon to convert this into a html file upload to allow users to upload files without login. You can subscribe to the Formfacade - Embed paid plan. This plan is suitable for occasional light use cases that require collecting files. You get a 10mb max size per file with a total file storage of 1gb. Only the form owner can access the files one at a time after they login with their google account. Formfacade - Embed https://formfacade.com/embed/pricing.html If your requirement is to collect large files and collaborate with your team, you should also subscribe to the file upload plan 10gb, 100gb or 1tb. You can increase the max file size to up to 1gb per file (depends on the plan), the number of files per file upload question, restrict file types, enable unlisted links to allow anyone to access the files, add collaborators to provide access to specific users and use our addon to sync the uploaded files to your google drive.
