Apply Multiple Conditions on Form Field Using AND / OR Logic

In many real-life form scenarios, a single condition is not enough. You may want a field to appear only when multiple conditions are true, or if any one of several conditions is true. This is where AND / OR logic comes in.

With the Conditional Fields for Elementor Form plugin, you can combine multiple rules using AND or OR logic to control how and when a field is shown, hidden, enabled, or disabled.

Apply Multiple Conditions Using “AND” Logic

Use AND logic when all specified conditions must be true for the action (show/hide) to take place.

Example Use Case

Let’s say you want to show a field titled “Upload Company Documents” only when:

• The user selects “Business” in the account_type field
  AND
• They enter more than 5 employees in the team_size field

The logic would be:
Show “Upload Company Documents” if
account_type equals “Business”
AND
team_size is greater than 5

Apply Multiple Conditions Using “OR” Logic

Use OR logic when any one of the conditions is enough for the field to be triggered.

Example Use Case

You want to show a field called “Apply Student Discount” if:

• The user selects “Student” in the user_role field
  OR
• Their email address ends with “@college.edu”

The logic would be:
Show “Apply Student Discount” if
user_role equals “Student”
OR
email ends with “@college.edu”

Common FAQs

Q1: Can I combine AND and OR logic together?

Answer: Not in a single rule group. Each field allows one logic type per condition group. If you need complex combinations, split the logic using different conditions or restructure your form.

Q2: What happens if one of the condition fields is hidden or not filled?

Answer: If you’re using AND logic, the entire condition will fail unless all inputs are filled and valid. With OR logic, even one valid condition will pass and trigger the action.

Q3: Can I create conditions based on checkbox or radio field values?

Answer: Yes, you can use Equals, Contains, and other compare operators to match checkbox or radio values. Just make sure the correct value label or option is used.

Q4: My condition is not working. What should I check?

• Ensure that Field IDs are correct and match the field triggering the condition.
• Double-check that you’re using the right compare operator.
• Make sure the conditional field is not hidden due to another rule.
• Inspect your console for JavaScript errors or plugin conflicts.
