Editing an Information Page

Whether you are editing the opt-in or profile update workflow, you will have information pages that display along the process to confirm that an action has been performed with success or has caused an error, to display a thank you message or any other information you wish to provide to the visitor.

Important distinction between forms hosted on Dialog Insight and forms integrated in the client's site

It is important to know that only information pages for forms hosted on Dialog Insight can be edited in Dialog Insight. When the form is integrated to the client's site, the text of the thank you or confirmation page, or of any other page, must be done directly in the generated code.

Prerequisite Have enabled the opt-in and update form management module.
