General Settings
Form Title – The name entered here will be what’s displayed in the Ninja Forms Dashboard when you view your list of all forms. You can also choose to display this title or not on the body of the form with the option below.
Display Form Title – Toggle to show/hide the Form Title (above) when the form is displayed to users on a post or page.
Clear Successfully Completed Form – On by default. When a form is submitted, all information entered into fields will be cleared. If you want the form to retain the data entered by a user, turn this off. Only the user submitting the form will see their data in the form fields; it will not be visible to any one else. This does not affect data being recorded to Submissions.
Hide Successfully Completed Form – On by default. When a form is submitted it will not reload on the page for the user that submitted it (it will still be visible to anyone else, though). If you want to form to reload itself on the page for the user that just submitted it, turn this option off.
