    @sunjam thanks for creating the issue. However, your post has some information missing: which Nextcloud/Forms version are you using? Please also have a look if your browser console shows any error messages related to Forms and post the output here. Without this information we could only guess...

    Fair, asking host for those details.

    Nextcloud version: 30.0.5
    Forms version: 4.3.6

    @sunjam ok, this is an outdated version of Forms. The latest release is 5.1.2. So could you please ask your hoster if they can update the app and see if the issue is still valid there?
