How to show or hide form labels on a 123FormBuilder form

If you want to style your form or make it more dynamic, you can change the label placement by deciding to either show it or hide it. This setting has to be applied to each field individually, it does not apply automatically to the entire form.

All you have to do is to select the field you are interested in bringing changes to and in the left side panel you will find the section Options. Label placement is the setting that allows you to play around with the question text.
