All the fields you will add in any of sign up forms will be automatically added in the list of “Preset Fields” section of form builder. Sometimes it happens that some fields becomes unnecessary so you will remove that fields from sign up form, but those fields will still remain as it is in “Preset Fields” section even if they were deleted, so you can add them in the form from Preset Field, if again needed in future.
But sometimes you have added fields for testing purpose and then deleted those fields from forms. If those fields will not be deleted from Preset Fields, then Preset Field list will be longer and longer. Also those deleted fields will be displayed in “Edit Member” page of administrator area. So you must need some way to clear these unused fields from everywhere.
For these, ARMember Provides Clear From Field setting in General Settings.
Suppose you have added a text box of “Address” in sign up form. So it will be also added in Preset Fields section. Now if you have deleted address field for any reason. But it still appears in “Preset Fields” section.
Now to remove “Address” field from “Preset Field” section, use “Clear Form Field” button. Click on it, then popup will open as shown below.
From popup, you can select all the fields that you want to delete from everywhere. You will see some checkboxes remain disabled as they are default fields and cannot be deleted from sign up form. Checkboxes for other fields will be enabled only if that fields were deleted from sign up form first.
If data entry exists for any of those fields, then you will see “(Entry Exist)” in red letter beside that field checkbox. Now Select all the fields, that you want to delete from everywhere and click OK button. That’s it. All selected unused fields will be removed from everywhere.
