Inline Editing in GoHighLevel for Forms, Surveys, and Quizzes

If you use platforms like ClickUp to organize your work and want a smoother way to build funnels, the inline editing feature in GoHighLevel helps you update forms, surveys, and quizzes directly on your pages without switching between multiple screens.

This guide explains how inline editing works, how to enable it, and how to use it effectively when working with your GoHighLevel assets.

What Is GoHighLevel Inline Editing?

Inline editing in GoHighLevel lets you open and edit forms, surveys, and quizzes from within the funnel or website builder, instead of navigating separately to the Form Builder or Survey Builder. This streamlines your workflow and reduces the time spent clicking back and forth between tools.

When inline editing is turned on, you can:

  • Open the editor for a form, survey, or quiz in a single click.
  • Modify fields, styles, and settings without leaving the page builder.
  • Quickly test and adjust opt-in experiences inside your funnels.

How GoHighLevel Inline Editing Works

The inline editing feature adds a small editing icon on supported elements inside the builder. When you click that icon, the related builder (forms, surveys, or quizzes) opens in an overlay or popup, letting you make changes instantly.

This works on:

  • Form elements embedded in a funnel or website.
  • Survey elements placed on a page.
  • Quiz elements used for lead capture or assessments.

Enabling Inline Editing in GoHighLevel

Inline editing is a setting inside the funnel or website builder. You must turn it on before you can use it with your assets.

Steps to Turn On Inline Editing in GoHighLevel

  1. Open your Funnels or Websites section in GoHighLevel.

  2. Select the funnel or page where your form, survey, or quiz is placed.

  3. Click Edit to open the page builder.

  4. Look for the Inline Editing toggle or setting in the builder options (usually near the top or in a settings menu).

  5. Turn the toggle On to enable inline editing for compatible elements.

  6. Save your changes in the builder before closing.

Once this is enabled, forms, surveys, and quizzes on the page will display an inline edit control.

Using Inline Editing with GoHighLevel Forms

With inline editing active, you can customize GoHighLevel forms directly inside your funnel or website layout.

How to Edit a Form Inline

  1. Open the funnel or page that contains your form in the builder.

  2. Hover over the form element until you see the inline edit icon or option.

  3. Click the inline edit icon to open the Form Builder overlay.

  4. In the overlay, adjust fields, labels, and layout as needed.

  5. Click Save or Update in the Form Builder.

  6. Close the overlay to return to the page builder and continue designing.

This process lets you see exactly how the form fits within your design while you edit it, which is especially helpful for optimizing spacing, headings, and calls-to-action.

Using Inline Editing with GoHighLevel Surveys

Inline editing also supports surveys that are embedded on a page or funnel step, allowing you to refine the user experience quickly.

How to Edit a Survey Inline

  1. Open the relevant funnel step or page in the GoHighLevel builder.

  2. Locate the survey element on the canvas.

  3. Hover over the survey to display the inline edit icon.

  4. Click the icon to open the Survey Builder in an overlay window.

  5. Update survey questions, options, and settings.

  6. Save your changes, then close the overlay to return to your layout.

By editing surveys inline, you can quickly adjust question order and design to improve completion rates and alignment with your funnel messaging.

Using Inline Editing with GoHighLevel Quizzes

Quizzes can also be managed through inline editing when they are placed on funnels or websites inside GoHighLevel.

How to Edit a Quiz Inline

  1. Open the funnel or page that contains the quiz element.

  2. Hover over the quiz until you see the inline edit option.

  3. Click the inline edit icon to launch the Quiz editing interface.

  4. Change questions, scoring logic, or visual settings as required.

  5. Save your quiz, then close the overlay and continue editing your page.

This makes it easier to test different quiz variations without rebuilding your funnel from scratch.

Best Practices for GoHighLevel Inline Editing

To get the most from inline editing inside GoHighLevel, follow these practical tips:

  • Edit one element at a time: Focus on a single form, survey, or quiz before moving to the next to avoid confusion.
  • Save frequently: Use the save options in both the inline editor and the page builder to prevent data loss.
  • Preview your funnel: After adjusting an asset, use the preview mode to see how it behaves for end users.
  • Keep fields concise: Short, clear fields in forms and surveys generally convert better and are easier to manage inline.

Troubleshooting GoHighLevel Inline Editing

If inline editing does not appear or does not work as expected, check the following points:

  • Inline toggle is off: Confirm that inline editing is enabled in the builder settings.
  • Unsupported element: Verify that the item you are trying to edit is a supported GoHighLevel form, survey, or quiz, not a third-party embed.
  • Browser cache: Clear your browser cache or try an incognito window.
  • Permissions: Ensure your user role has permission to edit forms, surveys, and quizzes.

If issues persist, you can reference the official documentation at this GoHighLevel support article on inline editing or contact platform support.

When to Use Inline Editing vs. Full Editors

Inline editing is ideal when you want to make quick adjustments while seeing your funnel design at the same time. However, you may still prefer the full Form, Survey, or Quiz Builder in some situations.

Use Inline Editing When

  • You are fine-tuning labels, placeholders, or button text.
  • You need to see how the asset fits in your page layout.
  • You want to rapidly iterate on small changes during A/B testing.

Use the Full Builder When

  • You are building a new form, survey, or quiz from scratch.
  • You are making extensive structural changes with many fields or steps.
  • You need to adjust advanced settings not exposed in the overlay.

Next Steps for Optimizing Your GoHighLevel Funnels
