The “Exists in Submissions” custom validation in OpnForm has been expanded to work for most field types!
Now, you can prevent duplicate values across emails, numbers, URLs, select fields, multi-selects, dates, users, relations, and more — automatically keeping your form data clean, organized, and reliable.
You can also add custom messages to inform users when a value already exists.
You can apply this validation to most OpnForm field types:
Title
URL
Phone number
Rich Text
Number
Select
Multi Select
Status
Date
User
Relation
⚠️ Note: Some complex fields like User or Relation may require linking to a database to validate properly.
