When your site starts receiving more form submissions, it becomes harder to keep track of which entries you have already reviewed and which ones still need attention.
Form Vibes Pro helps with this by letting you mark submissions with a status. You can use this feature to keep your entries organized and make your review process easier.
By default, Form Vibes Pro includes three submission statuses: Read, Unread, or Spam.
In this guide, you will learn how to enable the status feature, change the status for a single entry, update multiple entries at once, and use status more effectively in your daily workflow.
What Is Submission Status in Form Vibes?
Submission status is a simple way to label form entries based on their current state.
For example:
- Unread can be used for new submissions that still need review
- Read can be used for entries you have already checked
- Spam can be used for junk or unwanted submissions
This helps you manage entries more clearly, especially when your site receives submissions regularly.
Why Submission Status Is Useful
Using submission status can make form management much easier.
It helps you:
- see which entries still need attention
- separate valid submissions from spam
- keep your dashboard more organized
- make review work easier for your team
Instead of checking every submission again and again, you can use statuses to quickly understand what has already been reviewed.
Let’s start setting up the submission status in Form Vibes.
Enable the Status Module First
Before you can use submission status, you need to enable the Status Module in Form Vibes settings.
Go to the Form Vibes settings area in your WordPress dashboard and enable the module first. Once it is turned on, the status feature will be available inside your submissions area.
This is an important first step, so it is best to complete it before trying to update any entry.
How to Change Submission Status for a Single Entry
If you want to update the status for one submission, you can do that directly from the submissions page.
- Go to Form Vibes -> Submissions from your WordPress dashboard.
- Locate the submission whose status you want to change.
- Use the available status option for that entry and select the status you want to apply.
- For example, you might mark a newly reviewed entry as Read, or label a suspicious entry as Spam.
How to Update Submission Status in Bulk
If you need to update several entries at the same time, Form Vibes Pro also lets you do that in bulk. Follow the steps below:
- Open the submissions list and select the entries you want to update.
- Click on Select Action option and pick the status update option.
- Choose the status you want to assign and save the changes.
Control Who Can View or Change Status
If multiple users manage form submissions on your site, you may not want everyone to have the same level of access.
With Role Manager, you can control who is allowed to view or change submission status. This is helpful when different team members have different responsibilities.
Conclusion
Submission status is a simple but useful feature in Form Vibes Pro. It helps you organize your entries, review submissions more clearly, and manage spam more efficiently.
Once the Status Module is enabled, you can update one entry at a time or make changes in bulk. You can also combine status with filters and user permissions to create a more structured submission workflow.
If you regularly manage form entries in WordPress, this feature can make that process much easier.
