Overview
To add Section Headers to forms
You must have purchased this add-on.
You must be an administrator of the site.
Section Header – Form Enhancement
Use single line of text columns (fields).
The column name is not displayed on the page and instead is used to identify that it is a “header” when viewing list columns on the list settings page.
Under Additional Column Settings, the “Description” field is the critical piece that turns the “default value text” into a header; it must contain exact text as explained below.
The Default Value – must be “text” and this is the text that will display as the Section Header text within your form.
A web search for ‘Hex colour’ will supply you with sources of colour codes.
How to Add a Section Header
- Go to the list that needs the section header (Site Actions>View All Site Content>your list) then to the list settings.
- Click "Add new column".
- Column Name: not used/displayed in form – name could contain "Header – your choice" (or some text to identify within the columns listed in the list settings page).
- Type of Column: Single line of text
- Description: this field must contain the text “Header Section” (the system is looking for this exact phrase), a dash (hyphen) and your chosen colour (in hexadecimal code)
Example: Header Section - #94FFGG - Default Value: Text
- Default Text: Your choice of Header Name (for display in the form).
