Webforms

Webforms can be used to capture and collate information digitally. They can provide a better user experience and be more accessible than a PDF form. Webforms can include checkboxes, radio buttons and text fields as well as confirmation that the form has been sent and received.

See and interact with the Webforms component block demo on this page.

Basic address
The basic address element is a form element that populates several address fields including address, city, state, postcode and country. The default titles for each of these can be changed. (For this example the title Basic address has been turned on but by default is set to invisible.) 
The text field element allows input of a single-line text.
The text area element allows input of multiple lines of text.
The number element allows for input of numbers
The select element allows for a drop-down menu or scrolling selection box. You can choose custom options in element to add your own options or you can choose from standard Drupal options such as date, size or gender. 
Radios
Radio buttons are a form element for a set of radio buttons. Radio buttons are used for  either/or answers rather than selecting multiple answers. You can use the Custom options setting to add your own options or select from Drupal standard options for dates or demographics.
Checkboxes
A form element for a set of checkboxes where multiple answers can be selected. You can use the Custom options setting to add your own options or select from Drupal standard options for dates or demographics.
The Checkbox element provides a form element for a single checkbox. A single checkbox is often used as a confirmation field at the end of a form, for example, agreeing to the terms and conditions of the form.
A likert element is where users can respond to multiple questions using a scale. This example is using a default option of satisfaction ratings but other standard options such as agreement, importance and quality are also available. You can also choose custom answers.
