View a Form in Church Center

People can fill out a form to update their profiles and submit information. Their submission will be saved in the form submissions tab, where an administrator can view the updated information.

Select View Public Form on the Forms page to go to the form on Church Center. You can see what your church members will see and share that link with anyone who needs to complete the form.

Important

Forms will not open on iOS devices that cannot upgrade to iOS 13 or higher.

On the form, you will see all the fields you've added, and any fields you've required will have a red asterisk.

Notice

The form cannot be completed without the name, email address, and other required fields, but non-required fields can be left blank.

Once the form is submitted, the submission details will show on the screen.

Note

ReCaptcha is included in Forms to prevent bots from making spam submissions.

Verification

Verification protects incorrect information from being entered into profiles, especially if an email address or phone number is updated since those are used for logging in to Church Center or Planning Center.

If someone fills out a profile field on a form, they will see a message after their submission asking them to check for a verification email at the primary email address on their profile to confirm what they entered is true.

Notice

A person will not be sent a verification email if:

  • They're logged into Church Center on the web or app.

  • The updated profile field is the phone number listed in a different format, but the number matches.

  • The only profile field that has been updated is a note.

In the email itself, they can click the blue button to verify that the information is correct.

Until they verify the changes by clicking the blue button, their profile will not be updated with the new information.

You can determine if someone has verified information by reviewing the form submission.
