Setting Up Conditional Logic in Divi Form Builder (Divi 5)

Conditional logic shows or hides fields based on values in other fields (e.g. show a text field only when "Option A" is selected in a dropdown). In Divi 5, you configure this in the Conditional Logic section of each field’s options.

Where to find it (Divi 5)

1. Open the page in the Divi 5 Visual Builder.
2. Select the Form module and open the Content tab.
3. Select the field that should appear or disappear based on another field.
4. Open the Conditional Logic section and enable it, then define rules (e.g. "Field One equals A").

Example

• Field One (dropdown): Options A, B, C.
• Field Two (text): Enable conditional logic so it shows only when Field One is "Option A".

Dependencies and sequencing

• Configure the controlling field first (for example dropdown, radio, or checkbox).
• Confirm the controlling field has the exact values you plan to target in your rule.
• Apply conditional logic to dependent fields only after the controlling field is fully configured.

Verify it works

1. Save the form and open it on the front end.
2. Change the controlling field across all expected values.
3. Confirm dependent fields show/hide correctly and can still be submitted.

Common pitfalls

• Rules fail when option labels/values are changed after logic is set.
• Complex forms become hard to debug if many fields depend on each other; test one rule at a time.
• Hidden required fields can block submission if logic is misconfigured.

What's Next

• Use Autocomplete fields to improve form completion speed.
• Return to Field settings for related per-field options.
• Configure Form settings for post-submit behavior.
