Remove the Back Button

For some projects, you may not want your respondents to use the back button to change answers on previous pages. You can remove the survey back button in the survey's theme:

  1. Go to Style > Layout > Layout Options.
  2. Uncheck the Show Back Button option and click Apply Changes.

Note: Turning off the back button does not prevent the respondent from using the browser back button.


Removing Back Button on a Single Page

If you wish to hide the back button on a single page this JavaScript will hide the back button on that page that it has been placed on. In the example survey below the back button is hidden on the third page. 

Check it out in a survey:
