## How To Make Content Boxes Conditional

You can make entire content boxes conditional, meaning that if they are not relevant to previously chosen information they will disappear entirely. **Just like magic!**

1\. Start by creating all content boxes in your document/template.

2\. Make sure the feature you are using, *in this example: drop list*, is set on "Sender". This makes it possible for you to edit the different content boxes.

3\. Now click on the three dots next to the content box -\> Choose "Conditional" -\> Choose the answer this content box is dependent on.

***Note!*** *Your content boxes will disappear into paragraph signs. These are not visible for the recipient but are there to mark that there is a invisible field in the document/template. In order to access the hidden content boxes, click on answer it is conditional to and it will appear.*

*4. If the information is meant to be filled in by the Sender you can leave the settings in the feature, in this example: drop list, on "Sender". If it is meant to be filled in by the recipient don't forget to set it back on "Recipient" the same way you did in Step 2 of this article.*
