I want to create a hyperlink in description on a form but the hyperlink is very long and unwieldy so I want to create it behind some text. My exact issue is a form that asks the user to accept the terms and conditions and a description that links to the Ts&Cs eg> Please click here to read T’s and Cs.
Apparently it used to work !!
Great feature request. As a temporary workaround, you could use a free tool like Bitly (https://bitly.com/) to shorten the URL then include that link in your form description.

Hi @monday-team @CXS ,
Just checking if this feature is on the product release roadmap? A lot of our teams have requested this feature. We don’t want to add our long google drive links to the description. It is not a good customer experience.

Hey
Nachliel from Easyapps here
You can add hyperlinks to a form description as well as column descriptions by utilizing there HTML support. This is done by adding an “a” tag to the form description in the format of
<a href="https://www.easyappshq.com/">Open Link</a>
Regardless, if you are interested in creating styled forms that better match your brand and embed perfectly in you web page you can check out our monday.com app Easyform and our extensive documentation site.
Additionally, not like monday forms that restricts you to opening the link in the same tab as the form (only in the form description, no limitation in question descriptions) Easyform does enable this by using the “a” tag in the format:
<a href="https://www.easyappshq.com/" target="_blank">Open Link</a>
You can set up a free demo here or contact us at support@easyappshq.com.
Here is an example of our form in action:
I hope this helps

Wow, it works. Your the best!
Hi Nachliel! I realize this thread is old, but had a question about the hyperlink. It works perfectly to shorten the URL, however the link opens in Monday. That’s not ideal when you are filling out a form. Maybe I set up incorrectly?
