Demonstration of enabling auto ocus on WPForms field without coding.

Introduction

Do you want WPForms to focus on a particular field when the page loads automatically? By adding autofocus, you can increase form conversions by making it easier for users to start typing in information as soon as the page loads. In this tutorial, I will show you how to easily autofocus on any form field of WPForms on page reload. This works for multipage forms, too.

Why Enable Auto Focus on WPForms?

Improves User Experience: Autofocus takes users directly to the first input field, reducing friction.
Enhances Accessibility: Helps keyboard-only users navigate forms more efficiently.
Boosts Form Completion Rates: A seamless experience can increase conversions and form submissions.

How to Enable Auto Focus on WPForms?

To enable autofocus on WPForm fields you will need Power Ups for WPForms addon.

Once you have enabled PowerUps for WPForms, navigate to your WPForms -> Ultimate Kit.
Select the form for which you want to enable field autofocus.
Navigate to the Power-Ups panel and then click on the Settings button of Autofocus for WPForms Field.
Now enable the power-up.
Please select the field on which you want to focus on page load. If you have a multipage form, please ensure that the chosen field is located on the first page.
Tick the ‘Focus first field on each form page’ if you have a multipage form and want to autofocus on the first field of each page.
Save the settings and check the form in the front end.
