New Question Type Request


Hi, we're a startup that's constantly trying to improve the way we interact with our customers. We love typeform for it's versatility, ease of use and many integrations, but we'd like to create a custom question and were wondering if we can develop that format together.Just like the new personal information question, where there's multiple question fields in 1 screen, we're hoping to create a similar screen which accepts inputs to a few questions at once.We're a travel company and we're hoping to gather information on how many people are travelling together and what their age ranges are in one screen. In short, we need to know how many Adults, Teenagers, Children and Infants are coming on a trip. Just a number input for each question is fine.Our example only requires numeric question types, but I can imagine this functionality being very helpful for other people as well. Curious to hear your thoughts!

Hi @Naman Mathur Thanks for stopping by the community! Your business sounds really fun. 😀

We don’t have the option to create a custom question, but would you be able to use a question group to gather all of the questions you’d need to ask under one?

hi @Liz is there a process for putting in a feature request for being able to do custom question types like this?  I have a form that I’m making that can have up to 20 different names, birthdates, titles, and addresses on it and it would make my life much easier if I could group those into a single question type rather than needing to do a contact type hiding everything but first/last name, date type, and address type.  There are other sets of questions that would be nice to put into a single custom type as well, rather than spread out across multiple questions.

 

Thank you!

Hi @JeremyK I’m happy to pass along the feedback to the product team for you. 😀 One thing to note is that there is no guarantee this will be added to the roadmap.
