Asterisks next to questions
Hi again,
I guess @bella.moore wanted to know why Typeform automatically adds an asterix next to some questions which cannot be erased?* This is an issue I am finding and would also like help with. Thanks
des
Can the asterisks be hidden via CSS somehow? For quizzes or other forms where ALL questions are required, the asterisks are unnecessary distraction and noise for the respondents. There should be a way to hide them.
We create several internal forms and need employees to answer to all questions because they are giving us key information to provide services they ask for. We always have some employees asking why there is an asterisk in each question and if there is information missing.
If it is not possible to remove would be great if you could change the symbol and not use an asterisk, as asterisks are normally used as a pointer to an annotation or footnote.
Thanks in advance.

I agree with this, and I know our team would love to have the asterisk removed as well FWIW
Thanks for the feedback,
I understand nothing. Why can’t this feature just be inserted? Not rocket science.
Hi
Agreed. please make the asterix optional. for a required question there can be a mistake sign or something if needed.
Those who use Typeform Business or Enterprise plan should be able to hide the asterisk using the Google Tag Manager integration, with a Custom HTML tag in Google Tag Manager
<style>
spanndata-qa="required-asterisk"] {
display: none !important;
}
</style>
See GTM doc on how to add a Custom HTML tag

This seems like a small lift and would go a long way for us!
There should be a way, especially for us paying customers, to disable the asterisk next to required questions. While I know it’s standard on many forms, we have some special cases where this is just not necessary and the asterisk looks weird and is not a helpful indicator.
I agree that the asterisk is annoying. Just tested my quiz with volunteers and they all asked what the asterisk was for.
