#### Calculated “hidden” Fields

The calculated fields can be “hidden” fields. This way the calculated values of 
those “hidden” fields won’t be displayed in the form. This is useful for using intermediate
calculated values or for showing the calculated values only into the email.

#### Equations / formulas Format

Here are some sample formulas that can be used in the math formula feature:

 * With simple mathematical operations:
 *     ```
       fieldname1 + fieldname2
   
       fieldname1 * fieldname2
   
       fieldname1 / fieldname2
   
       fieldname1 - fieldname2
       ```
   
 * With multiple fields and fields grouping included:
 *     ```
       fieldname1 * ( fieldname2 + fieldname3 )
       ```
   
 * There is a huge number of equations that can’t be recreated with simple mathematical
   operators, or the operations listed above, requiring “IF” conditions, here is
   a sample of the formula that can be used in that case:
 *     ```
       `
           if(fieldname3 > 100) return fieldname1+fieldname2;
           if(fieldname3 <= 100) return fieldname1*fieldname2;
       `
       ```
   
 * For complex equations where is required to define blocks of JavaScript code, 
   you should use the following format:
 *     ```
               var calculatedValue = 0;
               //Your code here
               return calculatedValue;
       ```
   

…. and note that the **return** value of that function will be the value assigned
to the calculated field. More info here: https://wordpress-cost-estimator.zigaform.

I am not the kind of person writing comments, but here I have to share my amazing
experience. I needed to created my own calculator sheet to will be connected to 
Woocommerce. As I am a beginner in WordPress, I face some technical issues (stupid
ones), and the team always been helpful. On top of this, their fast response is 
incredible (every day of the week!). I wish the team and their plugins to succeed!

### 󠀁[Excellent with Quick Support](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/excellent-with-quick-support/)󠁿

 [Orange Ambition](https://profiles.wordpress.org/orangeambition/) May 20, 2020

This plugin is really good. Very customizable once you wrap your head around the
shortcodes for customizing the emails going to the admin and to the customer. Love
it because I have many use cases where we aren’t using it for the estimation cost
part of the functions, but it’s working terrific for just a contact form. The form
builder is pretty good and has lots of features and it’s pretty intuitive. And, 
the support, even for the free version, is FAST! I had an issue over a long weekend
and used the chat widget on the support page, got instant help, great direction 
and also reported a little bug which they squashed and sent out an update within
48 hours as well as following up by email communication. Maybe I was just lucky,
but for me, the service I get over a long weekend is an indicator of how things 
will be under a crunch.
