When ive uploaded my site my jotform form isn't showing the full form on a mobile site but is on a pc site can anyone help me?

Do a search. This has been explained 10000 times. Not meaning to be rude.

Easiest way to do a search is google because the one on the forum does not work correctly. Use something along the lines of this in google:

jotform mobile site:www.talkgraphics.com

Patience Grasshopper. You possibly have two years lead into the problem.

Jotform may use an ID reference to the form you have. Copying the same form into a Variant might therefore add more than one identical ID in the same web file that xara produces; HTML cannot handle this and the second and subsequent instances will be ignored. I don't use JotForm so this failure mechanism may not longer manifest.

If it does show the height of the Placeholder is critical as too short and the form, which is adaptive, will have got longer but hidden, invariably involving the commit button.
Lengthen you Placeholder and Variant page.

The final wrinkle is if you switch from Variant mobile in portrait mode to landscape you may change the Variant (and form) making all the entries vanish. The data is still there but now hidden. A user could toggle back and resume but this is counter-intuitive.
To overcome this aspect, I add my Form to a separate page and use the Embed a website widget to add any number of IFRAME Placeholders accessing the same form (and data).

In summary, there are three modes where the form is not "showing": duplicated IDs, incorrect Placeholder length and toggling through different Variant.

I believe yours may just be the middle one.
I added all three so the garnered TG knowledge is in one place for others to access.

I don't use Jot either, but wouldn't uploading to a sub folder, then use iFrames be a simpler, neater answer?

I had a very similar problem and Egg Bramhill helped me solve it here https://www.talkgraphics.com/showthr...blem-Inserting That may be of help.

Hello, new user here; moved to Xara after Adobe Muse finally stopped opening on my machine. (I am a graphic designer for print, not a web guy at all; built simple sites for a couple of my clients with the understanding that my abilities in that realm are super limited.)

Anyway. I'm having a similar issue with Jotform on a site I made using Blocks. Searched for the issue and came across this thread. I am not a coder at all and am still learning the program. Am interested in trying the placeholder solution, but unsure of how to implement it with Blocks :\

Appreciate any help!

I've never used Jot Form, so you're on your own with that bit. However, in regard to Placeholders in general, and Blocks, I can offer opinions.

In the attached example, I have used a blank Freestyle Block and unceremoniously dumped a pink rectangle into said Block. The rectangle is the Placeholder. A Placeholder acts like a window in a train. You look out, and the countryside passes by. The countryside is another webpage, the train window is the placeholder.

To gain a feel for how Placeholders work, I suggest opening the project file and taking note of the coloured text in the code. Red is the source (countryside), blue is the size of your Placeholder (train window), and the green is a description and isn't important.

The red and green are self-explanatory, but the blue needs a quick explanation.
The slideshow size is set to a percentage - the Placeholder (train window) will change size to whatever you make it, but the source (countryside) will retain its original size.
The Google Maps size is in pixels - the size of the Placeholder (train window) is largely irrelevant, as the code dictates the size. Add the Google code and make the Placeholder 200x200, and you'll see what I mean.

Hi. Here is a video for Google Forms. Very similar approach.

You can find many other videos on Blocks here:

@Matt, your Google Form video is very useful.

Just curious. My Contact (Googleform) #8 & #9 Web Blocks both have a contact form placeholder image in Polish. In Preview, the live form shows in English.
Q. Is this a way to indicate that if I change my document language from English UK to French the Google Form will alter to French?
If so that is powerful.

In the video, you do not cover the situation where Web Properties > Placeholder does not have the Regenerate the placeholder image automatically unticked.
If not the chosen form widget will not resize in the design and may therefore not fully, properly display when rendered.
Q. Might not this be the answer to the OP's original ask?

Last ping, in using your demonstration Contact (Jotform) #12, we still have the issue that the rendered instances of the Main & Variant form can hold different data.
Q. Where are you with this?
