Why do we have an option to make a form field type Hidden (invisible) under Event Setup/Attendee Form?


There have been cases where the organizer wants to collect attendee data and for that, an attendee form is attached and respective fields are added. This is normal and known to all of us.

However, in some cases, the organizer keeps the right to add feedback or some additional point against each of the attendees but not known to the attendee and only known to the event team and its analyst, only when the data is seen at the dashboard or it is downloaded in the CSV format. When you click to update the attendee data from the dashboard, that is where you are able to see this field.

In this case, you add a form field and make it hidden. Once hidden, it is not seen to the attendee; however, it is seen during the time of Update attendee data.
