The Thank You page is often neglected when crafting a form, but a well-designed one can elevate your form to a whole new level. There are hidden features related to the Thank You page in Forms that you might not be aware of. Let me guide you on how to enable these features to save you time and optimize your use of Forms.

[attachment=47694:name]	The respondents will not see “submit another response” on the Thank you page. [attachment=47695:name]
“Allow receipt of response after submission”: if selected, respondents are sent an option to view or print their response for future reference.
