Overview

When you build a registration form with Enrollment Fields, you can add a Separator to visually group and label related questions. A Separator is a display-only element — it does not collect data from the enrollee. Instead, it inserts a heading or section label into the enrollment form so that a set of fields (for example, volunteer questions) appears together in a clearly labeled section.

This is useful when you want to introduce a group of questions with a short heading, such as "Volunteer Interest" before a set of name and email fields.

Before You Begin

• Enrollment Fields are created in Programs > Configurations > Enrollment Fields, then added to a specific program under Programs > Manage Programs > 2 Configuration.
• A Separator organizes how existing Enrollment Fields are presented; it is added alongside the fields it introduces.
• Enrollment Field labels have a 50-character maximum, so use a Separator when you need to introduce a group of fields with descriptive text rather than cramming instructions into a single label.

How To Add a Separator

1. Sign in as an Administrator.
2. Go to Programs > Manage Programs and select the desired program.
3. Click the 2 Configuration tab and scroll down to the Enrollment Fields section.
4. Use the Add Separator option to insert a separator.
5. Enter the text (heading/label) you want to display for this section of the form.
6. Position the Separator above the group of Enrollment Fields it should introduce, then save.

Ordering the Fields Under a Separator

The Separator introduces the fields that follow it. Make sure the individual Enrollment Fields are ordered so they appear directly beneath the Separator heading on the registration form.

Formatting Limitations

Separator and side-description text is displayed as plain text. Based on support history:

• Line breaks entered into a Separator or side description are not preserved on the registration form (see ticket #125738).
• There is currently no rich-text formatting (bold, font size, custom spacing) available for Separator text.
• There is no multiple-choice Enrollment Field type. If you need to offer several selectable options, use a Drop Down field, and optionally add a Text field for an additional entry.

Common Use Case

To collect volunteer details as separate, sortable fields, an admin can:

1. Add a Separator with a heading such as Volunteer Interest.
2. Add a Text Enrollment Field for the volunteer's name.
3. Add a Text Enrollment Field for the volunteer's email address.

This keeps each answer in its own field (so it can be reported on individually) while grouping the questions under a single, clearly labeled section.
